Two Little Feet!!

 

Carefree and Hassle free

Once upon a time I lived,

A life where I was the branch and I was the tree

Left right and center spent pounds at the duty free,

 Late night parties and a hangover

Struggle for a sip of lemon water

Me, my bed, my quilt to cover

Hello waiter “can you please fill the quarter”,

 I have grown up now or must grow up

For the little hands that touch my face

Is the beautiful seed we have sowed up,

 

No morning alarm and no more snoozes

No more tequila shots or any boozes,

My routine around her and her around mine

Though once in a while I do still sip the wine,

 Moments of cuddle and giggle

Me on my toes while she on her wiggle,

 It is during that afternoon nap

Can’t stop staring at her and wait for that serene snap,

I rush in the 2 hours to finish my task

Thanks to corona I have my bag full of colorful mask,

The clock ticks with my heartbeat

The mind challenging for what would be her next feast,

Little stars and butterfly on the black chart

She knows she needs to pee in the pot and finish her lemon tart,

 

I speak she grasps

I do she observes

I dance she dances

I chant she repeats

She knows that she will be blessed when she touches the feet,

 

So much to teach and so much to learn

In every play and in every turn

I am amazed when she shows me the way

I’m speechless and have nothing to say,

For her smile I have no price to pay

She remains my favorite whether December or May,

 

Today morning when I woke up

Stared my self at the mirror for my make up,

Running between the rooms

Searching for the brooms,

My heart pounced with joy and bliss

Full of satisfaction and without a miss,

Gratitude is a powerful word

I can’t thank you enough God,

For when I look down

My heart is filled with joy and treat,

For now I know I own these two little feet!!
