At First Sight

by Sherita Thompson

Your silence rang loud in my ears

It’s a melody I have never heard before

The tune was soft and captivating

And I fell in love with your silence

 

Before your skin touched mine I just knew it

There was an unspoken love between us like no other

I knew God had sent me a blessing

Perfectly wrapped in your love

And for this, I thank Him everyday

 

As I sit here in the dark rocking you back and forth

Hoping to never let you go,

You snuggled close to my heart

The place you first heard my thoughts

I wondered who will captivate your heart

But then I realized your heart was already mine

So I pulled you in closer, making sure you felt protected, safe, and warm

Your words though unspoken were very loud

As you drew near to the place you once called your home

 

Your tiny body snuggled up against mine

You stretched and groaned as you searched frantically for my breast

At last you found it! You latched unto it

Your pulls were rhythmic, drawing in my milk

Sweet and warm to your taste so evident as you wiggle and twist your body

Ohh my baby!!!!

How I cherish these moments knowing they are fleeting

But until then I will cherish our unspoken love

 

During these shared silence

An unbroken bond was forged

Sealed for eternity, never to be broken.

A Foundation of love and trust built never to be shaken

A gratitude of thankfulness never to be mistaken

A love between us no pain can ever erase

A love no distance can break.

 

This was the moment I waited for

When all my desires were abolished

And all my hidden wishes fulfilled and in full view.
And as I held you close, the plentitude of your love filled my heart.

It is finished!

You are my true love

THIS IS THE LOVE BETWEEN YOU AND I

 

To James my second born son

 Love always and forever

Mom
