Born

All wrapped up like a newborn perfect and new
I look at you with a blank slate, I'm in love
Is there anything that I can give you
Please handle me with the softest kid gloves.
When I start to unwrap and you can see
My imperfections like the moon lit with love
Do not run, do not hide, just sing  out loud
Then reach out to consume me and hold proud

Smile ~ "Beautiful" ~ I have Always loved the "Treasures" I find amid a verse which seems to have been drawn from "The Water Springs of 'Ones Beautiful Soul'" &, this is what my own humbled heart seems to have found within this "Lovely Painting 'My Dear, Precious & Priceless Kristen Bruni!!!'" ~ Who is perfect? And the canvas lies blank! And, "Love," overcomes "All" ~ "A Soft Pastel Fave" ~ "My Love & Warmth to 'You & Yours,' Always," John! ~ ....Cont:)
