My Angel

Ten fingers and ten toes,
One cute little pink nose.

Teeny weeny ears and smooth little head.
"He's perfect as can be!" is all that I said.

I cried tears of joy and a few tears of pain,
But by the time it had ended, I knew there was more to gain.

Him just looking at me with those beautiful eyes,
And knowing that being near me softened his cries.

It was a feeling that I had never experienced before,
But it was a feeling I knew I wanted for sure.

He is my angel and is as sweet as can be,
I thank the Lord that he sent him to me.
