It’s 4 AM.
The Earth is slient – the world asleep.
You and I stare at each other in the dim light of the night light,
a twinkle beginning in your eyes and ending with a smile.
I kiss you softly and hold you close,
wishing to remember this moment.
It’s 6 AM.
The world will soon wake up.
While I love this quiet time with you, sweet baby,
Mama needs some sleep.
