To My Son

You are an angel to me.

By Darla M SeelyPublished about a year ago 1 min read

You loved to squeeze my hand,

Told me words I would understand.

I saw the first steps you would take,

You smelled the things I would bake

And liked to taste snow and sand.

    Sweetly and simply poignant.

    Very reflective and sweet, I love how this calls us to the innocence of a child and how those little moments with them matters - they stay with you for a lifetime.
