I remember, your Moro reflex
How you stretched out those your tender hands
Like, ah Daddy don’t let me fall
You excelled in your rooting reflex
Whenever I tickled you, by your side
You turned, smiling wide, opening your mouth
Funny how you suck with great intense
Like mum will leave you unattended
I stare at you like, ride on my girl
Taking you outside, you closed your eyes
It seems the sun got nothing on you
Yes my child, you are also a star
And gradually from just a week old
You learnt how to firmly grasp my thumb
Raising you, you stimulate walking
Though I see how fast you are growing, Daily gaining weight as a result
Of your mother’s nutritious breast milk
I can not wait for you to be grown
So you can show me your stepping skills
Running around corners will be fun
The ossification of your bones,
Never looked better, than growing fast
Under mother’s love and caring arm.
