Counting My Kids
6 beating hearts,
both loyal and true.
belonging to only,
my 4 and my 2.
12 eyes see my soul
1 trust from the start
1 000 000 memories
6 smiles touch my heart
8 years of cuddles
and countless to come
Inisde 48 fingers
and 12 little thumbs
stomping stampeding from
12 little feet
laughter explodes between
200 teeth
6 gorgeous heads
sporting 1 button nose
each with their own share
of 6 and 0 toes
no number to measure
all the joy that i gain
only 1 way to fix it
start counting again
