Child so soft and swaddled in blue
Close your eyes, while I hear you coo. 
Each click of the clock 
Makes cream your skin.
And with you in my arms, I feel young again.
Your mother I see, with a dimple just there
 So sleep for a time and let the world wait,
Let me steal this moment, until you awake.
Softer than velvet, and new in your gaze
As I watch both you and your mommy asleep.
