Sleeping child

Watching u sleep is such a delight
Tiny toes curled
Stubby fingers clenched tight

Your hair a mass of black velvet
button nose upturned
lips as pink as they can get

Your wispy eyebrows arching out
Eyes shut tight
little mouth making a pout

You suddenly smile a small smile
that smile then breaks into a million smiles
Making me wonder what u are dreaming of, all the while

You strike a pose of perfect bliss
Contentment and happiness
Making me pray, today, tomorrow, so it forever remains
