My Boy - By Olivia

A tiny hand on my chest

The first suckles of the night feed

Before my tired eyes can close

I make sure we rub our nose

The soft sound of you gulping

Makes mummy start humming

I lay and wonder if you know

How loved you are from toe to toe

Goodnight my boy I whisper wholly

As I place a kiss upon you slowly

Peacefully you lay there snoring

But I know you dream of exploring

I can’t wait till the morning

Just so I can hear you talking

But till then you keep on yawning

Getting you ready for tomorrow morning
