Mommy sleeps – peaceful dreams
Baby is in the nursery
Daddy’s eyes are wide open
Such a peaceful time,
this time of morning
The sun is just up over the horizon,
ready to do its rounds for the day
I draw in a breath
I feel sleep
still
lingering
just
behind
my
eyes
I know I will need a nap soon
It was a late night
A tough night
In the end it will be worth it
The baby monitor squeaks beside me
I listen to my son as he moves about
What is going on behind his eyes?
What is going on inside his dreams?
Sweet beams of sunlight,
filter in through the window
Caffeine calls
Time for my morning cup
