The Most Beautiful Baby

I never dreamt in a million days, that I would say.
--You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby! -- 
I set out on an adventure in May, just to play.
No interest in love or passion, single and free,
Then out of nowhere, you bent my heart in disarray.
No other woman will ever scrape my eyes from thee.
Perfection was the word that came to mind that day.
Bold beautiful eyes glistening in the shade of me,
Capturing my passion, definitely in every way,
Yes my lover divine, you had to be a gorgeous baby.
Angels would have whispered, of your arrival that day.
Nature, would have shouted triumphantly, out to sea.
Sea gulls on the horizon, gliding the clouds away.
Whales surface above to blow, for no rains to be.
Upon this earth, your day of birth, everyone did say.
Yes, in the whole world, you are the most beautiful baby.




Inspired by contest title and my life and love,but not for contest

Wonderful tribute to the "Beautiful Baby" who stole your heart, Cecil. Love comes along when we're not looking for it, doesn't it, Cecil? I'm so glad you have someone who makes you feel this way! Love, Carolyn
