L Is For Love

When daddy says wake up my child And gently shakes my bed Love is what' felt in my sleepy state, while lifting heavy head As mom feeds me warm cereal and milk Love between us exist Given a warm bath and clean clothes Love's tenderness can't resist Placed in a warm safe place to play Love radiates my way When I trip and fall, mom lifts me Kisses tears and frowns away Love is the emotion felt all day When warmth and hugs come Love also guides me to avoid Scary places the whole sum Love is a lullaby sung softly When tired and sleep won't fall Love is a kiss gently placed As covers tucked love enthrals Love is a good emotion felt It soothes my inner parts Love uplits, encourages all Love comes from the heart I feel that there are two emotions love and fear.. We can operate in love or we can operate in fear.. Sponsor: Casarah Nance Contest: E Is For Emotion Written: September 19, 2015

oh my, I chose fear! Just have not written it yet. It's actually a very useful emotion. I have to figure out how to convey that for a child. Yours is a delight. Love of course!
