Will you smile for me

little one?

Will you twirl around

in that tutu

I bought off Etsy?

Will you sing your lullaby

to me

so loud it wakes the cat 

from her nap?

Will you hold my hand

at the grocery store

while I buy those cookies

you like so much?

Will you stare out the window

from the passenger seat

and watch the trees

go by with me?

Will you let me

pick out clothes

for you?

Will you still dance

around the living room

with the oven mits on?

Will you say goodbye

when you go?

Will you love me

when it's all over? 

 

Will I?

Of course I will. 

I always will.
