Baby Years
Time runs away from me
And it will take you along,
Let me inhale the sweetness of you-
The honesty of your innocence
That lingers on your child ears,
Dances along your baby smooth cheek
Before it diminishes
With the passing years
Let me hold you
While you still fit in my lap
While my arms can still encircle all of you
In a deep embrace
Let me savor you-
As I gaze into your eyes,
And forever define your precious face
