Love Poem: Little Hands

Little Hands

Little hands that reach to touch you.
Little arms that hold you tight .
Little head upon the pillow.
As he lays dreaming every night.

Little eyes that look for knowledge.
And a smile that lights the room.
Playing with his little cars.
As he pushes they go zoom.

He grows an inch a month now.
But he isn't very tall.
We keep track of all the inches.
With a mark upon the wall.

He walks with me beside him.
His steps are really slow.
Compared to mine their tiny.
In the dust the prints they show.

At two years old . A genius.
For the child is really smart.
No prejudice will you find here.
Fro a grandmas loving heart.
