As I watch you dance and play, you say <br />“Mummy, will I be a dancer? ” <br />And I say.. <br />“Darling, with your little feet, <br />And your little arms, you can do anything ” <br /> <br />You looked at me and, <br />You smiled, a smile that could, <br />Make even the cruellest people smile <br />You laughed, a laugh that could, <br />Make even the unhappiest person laugh <br />You danced, a dance that could, <br />Make even the spirits stare with envy <br /> <br />As I watched you sing and play you say, <br />“Mummy, will I singer? ” <br />And I say <br />“Darling, with your talent, <br />And your angelic face you can do anything” <br /> <br />You looked at me with, <br />Those soulful eyes, eyes that could, <br />Awaken delight in an old man full of grief <br />You hold my hand with, <br />That soft touch that could <br />Soften the roughest edges of the earth <br />You loved me with, <br />The love mother’s only dreams of; <br />A daughter’s love, <br />For her mother <br /> <br />You smiled, yet another smile <br />And leave me for a little while <br />Rejoicing all I have <br />And that is <br />You, My sweet little child<br /><br />jodi right<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-sweet-little-child/
