‘If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds worth of distance run, yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it — and — which is more — you’ll be a man my son!’— Rudyard Kipling
right on time
you came out of this world
without inhibition
just life to live and give
untamed love
dressed in rainbows and blinding bursts of light
heart beat — beating and beating
breaths — breathing and breathing
DNA lifting the energy in every space in between the stars and every blade of grass
a soul like a river running through my veins — baptising me with the sound waves of your name
you hold me captive at the very edge of sane and insane — bouncing around like Tigger everywhere you adventure
Isn’t it funny — how it’s actually you that gave me life?
I am in your debt, night after night — listening to your heart composing your every high and low notes, beat after beat
In the peace of the night — I whisper a lullaby as you sleep to keep watering the garden within your chest
just keep beating and beating
just keep blooming and blooming
just keep breathing and breathing
just keep dreaming and dreaming
Authors note: Happy seventh birthday blessings to my little man Justy #heartbeats 🌻
