CHERISH THIS TIME by Joanna Fuchs - newborn babies poem

CHERISH  THIS  TIME by  Joanna Fuchs So your baby is here! What joy and what pleasure! Now your life is expanding, To make room for this treasure. A darling newcomer To have and to hold-- Her (His) smiles are more precious Than silver or gold. She'll (He'll) demolish your schedule Though she's helpless and small; She'll make her needs known, And she'll rule over all. See, a new parent's work Is just never quite done, But you'll never mind, ‘Cause it's all so much fun. When you hear her cute giggle You'll start "aahing" and "oohing," And she'll soon reply back By "ga ga" and "goo gooing." Those big innocent eyes See a world strange and new; To make sense of it all She'll look only to you. So cherish this time Of miraculous things The excitement and wonder That a new baby brings.
