My Child

The poem 'My Child' was inspired by this (attached) picture. Enjoy.

My love for you my child
Is more than mouth can tell
I'll carry you for as long as I can
Not only on my laps, my child
But in my heart always

I'll hold you close to me my child
Let go, I never will
I know your pain is much
But My bond with you my dear
Not even death can break

Feel the warmth of my embrace
See the love my eyes convey
Hear my heart beat just for you
Snuggle closer to me my child
Stay with me, don't go away.
