I love
The child in him
so innocent and sweet
The mischief in his eyes
The blush upon his cheek
The tender way he speaks
I love
That he shows me that he cares
And tells me he loves me in his own invented
language
The little colds disturbing his ever
Strong immune system
That give him a stuffy nose,
How he sweetly agonizes
On everything smelling less
How I make him chicken noodle soup
And give him lemon with sweet honey
Cold remedies concocted in the
Pharmacy of my soul
Honey lemon syrup of passion and
Hot ginger filled in his laughter
I love
The touch of his warm hand
That gently touches my hair
When he’s feeling better
And he holds me in his arms
The warmth from his chest on my face
as I lay on my forever home
I love
When he wears "the pink eye glasses"
The way he says my name
When I kiss his nose
The smiles that we share
That fill my life with glee
For when I’m with him
I find the child in me.

Oh, this one is one of my favorites. I loved everything, but I teared up at this line, "as I lay on my forever home" Wow. That really touches me.
Well done...it's nice to find someone who frees the child in ourselves. Beautifully written:~)
I love
his childish laughter
the way he swings restless
when someone is watching
drawing circles with his feet
I love his treat
when i say the right words
in the right time
I love when i heal his pain
kiss his tears and share his rain
I love when he feels weak
and only my arms he would seek
I love when his dimples shine
seducing looks as i say he is mine
I love when i hear his stories
in his arms after major glories
we both achieve
he would never leave
my heart
my sight
I love
when i unfold as a wet napkin spread
on his feverish forehead
taking all his pain inside me
I love when he loves me
the way i feel myself his child
and he is the living child in me.
what can i say,you darling just made me flow..hope he feels better soon,or else he has US to deal with it ha! extremely beautiful post Wild Rose..big tight hug darling..:)))
a beautiful love poem...and love like that can make you feel the giddy adventurousness of a child...and that gives me big smiles. very nice one shot!
I just love the way you write. "cold remedies concocted in the pharmacy of my soul" Loved that line. Another lovely poem
I love that we love him so much and also when he's sick we also feel so sick. Praying for him to tenderly heal. Darling you rock with your soul and love for him. Makes us love him lots and lots more. Thanks for sharing with us the child in him and you. Love you my angel.
Love, hugs & billion kisses,
Hera
Aww, that was so sweet! My favorite part:
How I make him chicken noodle soup
And give him lemon with sweet honey
Cold remedies concocted in the
Pharmacy of my soul
Honey lemon syrup of passion and
Hot ginger filled in his laughter
It gives me shivers, but the good kind!
Beautiful words.
"as I lay on my forever home" - that was so so lovely, the image so sweet. Your poem is so beautiful. To feel young at heart because of love is a wonderful gift.
I absolutely love your line "as I lay on my forever home." Beautiful. Very sweet and touching.
I loved this poem, Wild Rose. Love that keeps you young at heart is such a gift. "...as I lay on my forever home..." - is just so beautiful. The image is just so arresting and soothing.
very nice and romantic - the pink sunglasses the beauty of young love...keep loving and writing ...bkm
I smile cuz I wonder if you were inspired while 'he' was sick and at his most boy "ish"
Amazing the different strains of love
thanks for sharing your wonderful pieces with One Shot

All my colds are cured after reading this sweet and medicinal love. Darling...how can anyone get sick when they have this unconditional love?
Your Sun
A beautiful love story -- with the innocence of children.
Wonderful, as usual. Shame they can't always stay that child. :)
I love the playfulness of this piece, my dearest Wild Rose. It is fun... like the heart of a child... but it is filled with a mother's emotion that can only be expressed for her child. That "invented language" is so very precious, isn't it? Both of you will remember it forever. And it's funny how children can truly bring out our own inner child. They have that contagious effect on us.
Wishing you both the happiness and joy that can only exist between mom and child... and wishing you a remainder of the week filled with sweet delights, my dear. :-)
Warm hugs,
Nevine
Gorgeous verses, darling!

Real love remains in sickness also. That's the test not everyone passes, especially when confronting serious illness. Thought-provoking, beautiful love poem.
oh... And I love this so much!
Great poem!
;)
Dulce
The sweet nurturing soul of love, so very well written as only you can, love it!! :)
I can feel the caring in this. The tender love of helping him feel better.
And the end, so sweet and touching: "For when I'm with him
I find the child in me." :)
How very romantic and sweet!
I may make my own chicken noodle soup, but the 'little boy' in me is still alive and well.
Wonderful One Shot!
how very romantic this is :D the title in itself is very attractive!
good shot ;)

You are at it again with beautiful thought provoking prose. I think this one just might be my favorite one of yours... Time will time, for you always manage to come up with something sublime.
Joanny
Oops,I just noticed something. I meant to say "You got me hooked".
you capture the fun and loving energy of the love of a child so well here. one of the best i've read on the subject. very well done.
Ooohhh darling... innocent love is the purest form of love ever!! Makes everything so transparent, and yet so beautiful!
How ugly we make it look these days, with all kinds of names attached, masks, falsities and what not!
But the love that you have mentioned here... THIS is what I call "bliss"... individuals sharing this, are the luckiest! And I am blessed!!
This one melted my heart, J... you really have a way with words... they seem to find the right spot in me, and tickle my senses...
