My Baby Boo

Today my heart felt a blow,
By a view so divine.
I let my emotions flow,
Like a 30 year old wine.

There it was in that tiny box,
With pulses of energy shooting through,
That blurry image came across,
Like the inside of a Great Gray Kangaroo.

I felt her hand touching mine,
Held her hand - fingers entwined,
Watching my angel wriggle and shine,
With the life of Us combined.

Seeing you raise your arms to fly,
Watching you lift your chest and sigh,
Made your mother almost cry,
As you waved to us good bye.

The feeling of wanting to hold you close,
Telling you "It's gonna be alright.",
Kissing you, like you kiss a rose,
Knowing the future is gonna be bright.

Come to me my baby boo,
I'll wait for you into the night,
The Lord has a plan for you,
And I'm going to do you right.

I Love You.
