New Born

Fragile beauty at your feet,
Oh so young and yet so meek.
Little toes and little eyes.
When in need it so cries.

A blessing from God.
Not a single thing odd.
Oh so much innocence,
How much can it influence?

So much joy you will bring,
How can that be, you little thing?
You will have it, so much fun,
You will rise like the new born sun

Baby, baby you are mine.
A gift from God at this time.
You are an angel born to me.
Born for destiny, let it be.
