A New Mom's Promise

As we sit alone together inside our hospital room It was only but one day ago I held you in my womb. And today although you’re still too young to fully understand In what truly is a miracle…I’m holding you in my hands. How fast we must adjust…adapt…how swiftly we rearrange This is your first life lesson…how quickly life can change. There will come a day you no longer fit inside my hands…but do not be too alarmed because there will never come a time…you don’t fit inside my arms. You see there’s something magical about a mother’s love…that all your life holds true It doesn’t matter how big you grow…my love will grow with you. So as I stare into your eyes today….I find it easy to admit from my womb, to my hands, to my arms…you are a perfect fit And I promise I will love you…and be captivated by your charms as long as I am living…as long as you fit inside my arms.
