Tender Blossoms

A  dainty baby drooling, in soft cuddly lap 
like a ravine of ambrosia scented all sweet.
toddles a landscape of lilies and tulip,
smoochy hugs kiss, fondling mouth to feet.
      
Camelias and orchids, in fleecy pink cheeks
gurgle and whistle, cries of joyful delight. 
warm touch in clasp, a fist of folded fingers
dreams of new hope, sleeping  through night.

Nurturing  pure love, humming sweet lullaby 
endless back and forth, rock a cradle awsome. 
unlike flowers of spring, that wither and wilt,
babies grow strong, from tender blossoms.
