The New Baby Sleeps

All in blue,the new baby sleeps.
Just born a few hours ago!
Oh,how his mother loves him so!

She snuggles him close to her.
God's perfection shines in him!

Mother feels that his oh,so tender
angelic skin.
His eyelashes, very long like a
doe!

She allows a tear to waltz down 
her face.

This is her moment of heaven on
earth.
The two of them bonded, because
God deemed it so!

Panagiota, I was writing to tell you that I read your poem about the Fifteen Purrfect Felines. But the poem disappeared, This kind of thing never happens to Garfield. PS - Babies are a Mother's truest gift. -Richard

I might re post tomorrow. I was furious because they blocked out the second word after Maine as a Pornographic word? Who works down there ..PC freaks? Apparently not knowledgeable in the world of felines. I am also fed up with getting two comments. I told someone earlier that I stayed up 24 hours Comnenting to others. No kidding,It's hopeless Richard. My Poetry must be horrid stuff, it is read, yes,. Why leave comnents open when nobody cares! This is how I see my place here...as a useless poet. PS yes babies are wonderful. Love Panagiota
