The little devil

He bites, spits and screams his head off,

He kicks, scratches and refuses to lie down,

He wriggles,pees and makes me feel helpless,

Just when I throw up my hands in exhaustion,

He snuggles and flashes one of his fleeting sleep grins,

And I lay there besotted for life,

The little devil sure knows his tricks !!

The wait...

I wait for the day you'll enter this world, kicking and screaming
I see a rainbow and imagine how you'll stare at it wide eyed the first time you see one
There is a snow fall and the ground is carpeted in white
The sun comes out and for a moment it looks like there are diamonds on the ground
How I wish you could see that.
I wonder if these things would even make sense to you
Will you snuggle with me on a rainy night and spin out imaginary tales
Or just dismiss me as an incurable romantic...
ah..the wait ..
