Holding precious bundles in my arms

counting ten perfect fingers and toes

I share how much love there is to give

and that you will always be protected.

Lines are layered into walls

another inch; years quickly flee

I smile beyond a veil of pride

for each wonderful milestone reached.

As children leave an empty bedroom

Our memories hold more than a picture

It shares a promise we made when you

only had eyes for me.
