0ne Precious Moment

Sing softy sweet nightingale, Your notes make a soothing lullaby, As a new born is cradled in its mother’s arms, Precious moment that must soon go by. Ever watched, and protected, Made out of tenderness and love, A gift granted by the great divine, Watched over from the world above. As you lie there, in bliss and innocence, Bringing pleasure to those most dear. For now just keep on sleeping, And know there is no fear.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
