Come home from <br />work <br /> <br />into this <br />perfect silence. <br /> <br />Shhhhh...see! <br /> <br />My child <br />curled up <br /> <br />against her <br />Mum’s tum. <br /> <br />Both of them <br />naked in the sun. <br /> <br />Both <br />curled into one <br /> <br />as when pregnant <br />now made into two. <br /> <br />I see my wife’s smile <br />transposed note for note <br /> <br />into my child’s <br />smile <br /> <br />as if strings had given way <br />to a gleeful glockenspiel. <br /> <br />I gaze <br />at my wife’s lovely face <br /> <br />decanted into our <br />little girl <br /> <br />like I was <br />looking at my wife <br /> <br />when she was a little girl <br /> <br />or if I could view <br />my little girl <br /> <br />as the woman she would <br />become <br />. <br />Even Time <br />seems amazed at them. <br /> <br />I kiss softly <br />(ever so softly) . <br /> <br />the top of <br />their curls <br /> <br />laugh <br /> <br />as two pairs of eyes <br />open...gaze <br /> <br />amazed into mine. <br /> <br /> <br />“Darling! ” whispers the one. <br /> <br /> <br />“Daddy! ” shouts the other.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/two-eyes-of-blue-for-onelia/
