A Joy To Behold

A child of beauty. Such a joy to behold, So full of mischief And yet good as gold. A rare precious gem In a world gone awry. A laughing imp With a sparkling eye. Sweet innocence wrapt In a bundle of fun, Full of wonder and Enchanting to everyone... Soulful eyes,Cupid mouth, Chubby cheeks that tantalise. A cherub from heaven born, Soft haired angel in disguise. Little hands that reach in trust, Pure,peaceful as a dove. And inside this pint pot of charm A heart that beats with love.... You,who would disquiet our lives Yet lay there so gentle and mild, You make us smile,tug at our hearts. Such a sweet adorable child. I wrote this when our first granddaughter was born,but it was personalised. She is now a beautiful woman with a child of her own.
