Darling

“Am I your darling?”

Her precious eyes mirror

 the softness within,

as with hushed tones

 she queries my endearment.

Just two, she senses

the deep love and affection

behind this single word,

sincerely offered.

I witness the wonder

 of a thoughtful mind and gentle spirit

as I’m drawn into her heart

to share a  sacred exchange.

“Call me darling again Grama,”

Her eyelids flicker in readiness

to receive the waves of love

carried in this simple word,

sincerely offered.

I am privileged to be able to share wisdom with this enquiring mind, to encourage and inspire independent thinking; to observe as this budding spirit creates life with love, kindness, and respect behind each word and deed.

Be blessed friends.
