Tiny Little Baby

You were fragile and so tiny Can’t believe you were so little My perfect son my own baby Lying in safe arms my baby Fingers and toes are so tiny Doll like clothing is so little Next to daddy you are little Just a premature new baby Why were you born very tiny Your fingernails are so tiny Simple perfection but little Mummy devoted to baby Gorgeous tiny little baby 08~01~14 Written for Tritina Challenge Contest Sponsored by Craig Cornish

This makes for a lovely entry in Craig's contest, Jan. Can imagine your tiny baby, a bundle of joy:) /x/ paul ..... [re formatting...have you tried clearing the computer browsing history? or else use CCleaner.]

There is a bit of 'poetic licence' here Paul as he wasn't premature - I found it a real challenge to try this form for the first time. I've had this problem with formatting for about 2 weeks and always been able to reformat straight away with no problem , but today I can't reformat at all.... guess they must be working on it LOL. Hugs as ever Jan xxx

The formatting is only a tiny problem compared with this fabulous Tritina...Love it... No greater love than a mother for her child...hugs Tim
