18 months Along My New Life With You

by Anon
(Cape Town)

Today I cried because of you
wondered if I was ready for you
You request so much but still
you're sleeping like a princess in a fairy tale
so fragile and so delicate.
You change my life, take over my world.
Like autumn that passed
you're the first green on the apple tree
U share with me a life
that starts to make sense only now
Without you knowing it, you fill a gap.
So until you begin to understand
Will I hold you close
to dance with me on the rhythm of our togetherness
until you go on your own way...
But until then and long after that
I'll thank God for this gift of mine
this precious you I can call my child
