One Morning (Free verse) by Joyleaf
In the soft gray light of morning
sneaking in through our window,
I saw my beautiful baby.
You were tumbled into a pile of blankets,
keeping deep brown eyes safe from the mischievous sunlight,
long black eyelashes resting against your skin.
I stole over to kiss you,
heart bursting,
and quiety laid a kiss on your cheek.
Later,
I stood
waiting
for the train that woud take me away for the morning,
that memory lingering.
I could feel you against my lips,
hear you breathe,
and see you, still asleep,
wrapped in soft layers of memory.
(iloveyou)
