Love Child

There is nothing that is more comforting
Than holding your child against your chest
To feel their earthly rhythms
To feel their peaceful breath.

To feel the love that only you can have
As a Parent for a Child
It is the Greatest feeling
The Greatest emotion you could ever possess.

I feel that love so deeply
I feel it in my bones
This child was God's greatest gift to me
The most cherished thing I own.
