Snips and snails, and puppy dogs tails, That's what little boys are made of.
"A Heart Full of Love"
A wee bit of heaven
drifted from above.
A handful of happiness,
a heart full of Love.
Welcome Baby - Will he be a Rock Star? |
Come Let me Rock you Gently
(Ode to a rocking Chair)
Come let me rock you gently
and as we softly sway
I'll share with you a story
and rock your cares away.
In the years that I have known
there has been much that I've seen.
The big "to do's", the nothing days
and all those in between.
To all I've offered comfort
and a quiet place to rest
I've rocked my share of little ones
(oh, how I love them best!).
A very tender memory
of all of those I hold
is one of love and caring
that now is growing old.
A Grandma with a little boy
placed firmly on her knee
would for hours sit and play
and we would rock so free!
The laughter in their voices
(to which I'd add a creak!)
would fill my day with pleasure
and with pure joy I'd squeak!
Oh how I loved the songs
they sang
and the games they played
and all the stories told
when they were all so young.
Now as our time is winding down
(it's nearly at an end!)
I bid you please come back
and sit
when you have time to spend.
Together we will gently sway
and stories will unfold
and I will rock your cares away
as each new one is told.
(Inspired by Deborah Guzzis' The Chairs Tale contest)
