Move Mountains for Her

The sunlight streams through the windowpane Casting a rainbow around my newborn In her bassinet as she sleeps. Brightening my world with flickering magic. Her silky blonde curls glisten with the spiritual light. Her soft cuddlable skin, her sweet powder sent, And a smile to melt anybody’s heart, She’s a flower of radiance and perfection. Oh, my heart warms as I hold her hand, so tiny In mine, and in my world. I marvel and sigh, How beautiful a gift I’ve been blessed. My tipsy mind dances on beams of lights And shadows of songs and merry, dancing Upon specks of dust across the floor. Ebullient memories will be made giving her The courage and strength to move mountains.

Such a sweet poem, my friend. Oh, my heart warms as I hold her hand, That is all it takes to fill our hears with joy. Just one touch or just one look.

Hi Eve, you poem beautifully captures the essence of a precious moment in a parent's life, filled with the warmth and wonder of a newborn. The vivid imagery of sunlight streaming through the windowpane and casting a rainbow around the baby's bassinet sets the stage for a scene filled with magic and radiance. The use of words like "flickering magic" adds a touch of enchantment to the atmosphere

Awwn this made my heart melt and i couldn’t help but think of my son and his newborn days, i miss them so much. The smell of them and how they make our day, truly words cant describe. “ My tipsy mind dances on beams of lights And shadows of songs and merry, dancing Upon specks of dust across the floor.” How descriptive and soulfully moving and touching! This is one of my faves from you dear eve! You are such a graceful and delicate writ that weaves love and peace with words. Fave it is
