I run my fingers down his cheeks, then hold his wrists, one in each hand. Profound, deep love within me speaks... emotions overtake command. I take his hands within my own... his fingers bend and tightly grasp with tenderness for me alone; in wonderment of joy, I gasp. His splendid thighs, so soft but firm delight my senses to caress, down past his knees to feet affirm his perfectness of form is blessed. But flawless toes I now behold... a miracle beyond compare. My baby boy, just born, I hold; newfound maternal love, declare. Sandra M. Haight ~3rd Place~ Premiere Contest: A Body Of Work Sponsor: Viv Wigley Judged: 10/06/2016 Six 'Body Parts' Words used: cheeks, wrists, fingers, thighs, knees, toes

This is so lovely Mrs Sandra. I love this precious write from your tender motherly heart. This is certainly way past a 7 but that is as high as the scale goes.
