His eyes closed as were hers,
a whisper of a kiss, a prayer
breathed onto her brow,
as if into her very skin
her father holding her
ever so gently, marveling
unable to describe fully in words
his joy, amazement
her tiny body in his arms
a whisper of a kiss, a prayer
his lip brushing her cheek,
her brow, in complete awe.
