It was a cold winter’s morning

The smell of rain still lingered

Baby was waking and yawning

Sheer wonder her eyes delivered

Mine set upon the dark of dawn

Seeing clouds form at ground level

Her tiny smile was heaven-drawn

God’s ultimate blessing, so special

As the heavy fog settled gradually

Obstructing all that we could see

She nestled in my arms instinctively

I was the happiest I could ever be

This was far from a summer’s day

Not so much as a hint of sunshine

But I wouldn’t have it any other way

This moment was wonderfully divine
