[.If I could speak, here's what I'd say.]

If I could speak, here's what I would say Happy in your arms, I want to stay.I am your gift, and you are mine too! Let love bond together, both me and you.
Lets enjoy this time, right here, right now.Don't let a schedule furrow your brow.Right now is the time, for me to hold,when you're less busy, I'll be too old.
Snuggle me tenderly, close to your chestit is here next to you, I am, at my best.Your rhythmic breathing and beating heart,Contentment, and comfort, to me impart.
To see you, smell you, assured by your voice,all, wonderfully simple, yet help me rejoice.A cuddle, a kiss, some playful fun and frolic,Can banish a mood, and prevent nasty colic.
Hold me, hug me, please show me your dayYou'll be sharing your love, in a marvelous way.My learning is best when perched at your sidewith arms as my classroom and you as my guide.
Please hold me up high, so I might seeAll the many wonders, surrounding me.With time spent close, as you socialize,My mind expands and clearly I vocalize!
When you work, walk or take a short tripWith me safely balanced, upon your hipMy muscle tone and self esteem are greater,I'll be walking much sooner, rather than later.
When we are in 'touch', it reduces our stressWe are happiest then, and worry much less.Safe in your arms, dispels all my fears.My beaming smiles, replace anxious tears.
To dream of our future is significant too,And I know a career is important to you.When I am older, then we'll join in the raceWe'll be more able, to keep up the pace.
Right now, what I know, as certain and rightIs that you are my sun, the source of my light.I don't need many things, expensive or new.What I need is your love, your time and you.
