The Baby

I held the SPLENDOR baby
In my LAVENDER night gown
The FRAGRANT baby lit up the room
And turned my world around
The BLISS baby WAFTED
A breath across my face
As it WHISPERED A DULCET ELOQUENCE
That only I can trace
It babbled in a way
So we had this understanding
That the sound of TRANQUILITY LILTING
Was all that his little heart was demanding




FOR WORD WARRIOR CONTEST

Sorry I never wrote and told you thanks for entering my contest that one time. I will have to start doing that to all the people in the future who enter any of my contests! I remember I nearly gave this one an HM.but I think I was trying to limit the number of them. Sorry about that! It was cute! LUv, Andrea
