Baby Blue

A soft blue cotton
On even softer skin;
The sweetest little package
Tucked just beneath my chin.

Across pale fabric
Little foxes roam.
Wherever he may wander,
He'll know my arms as home.

A bright blue blanket
Serves as a sky,
To bring into focus
The twinkle of his eyes.

Clear blue pools;
All that I can see,
When my baby boy
Is looking up at me.

Look my little baby,
And know that I can see.
