For Astrid Wren, My Little Bird ..

For Astrid Wren, My Little Bird ..

Now you are here
we just can’t
take our eyes of you ..
Yes you, and your
big baby blue eyes ..
Hey, just look at
those hands of hers
too tiny, to catch
hold of his fat thumb ..
She sounds
like a puppy, while
he stands there
on guard, beside her
just gazing down
and happily,
beating his drum ..
For she,
there is no doubt
at all, is loved,
perfect and beautiful
all neatly
rolled into one ..
It was then, that he
cried through his
whiskers
and he whispered ..
I shall be brave for you
Astrid,
my dear Astrid Wren ..
Just for you,
my little bird, I shall
forever be wise
and always, be strong ..

A new chapter Nev...one where you really get to undersrand the childs mind, beauty and innocence because you only get to have them in your leisure time, unlike our own children who mostly slip by us as we busily try to feed them...maybe we all get it a little backwards.  She is beautiful of course, WELL DONE gramps...mam and dad too of course...love and light to you all my friend ❀
