Re: need ideas
How sweet! Here's my all-time favorite baby poem, I've made quite a few cards over the years with this on it, maybe you've seen it? I think it could be nice on a plaque or a framed 8x12 page for the baby's nursery?
*****************
Where Did You Come From Baby Dear?
Where did you come from baby, dear?
Out of the everywhere and into here
Where did you get those eyes so blue?
Out of the sky as I came through
What makes the light in them sparkle and spin?
Some of the starry spikes got left in
Where did you get that little tear?
I found it waiting when I got here
What makes your forehead so smooth and so high?
A soft hand stroked it as I went by
What makes your cheek like a warm pink rose?
I saw something better than anyone knows
Whence the three-cornered smile of bliss?
The Angels as one gave me a kiss
Where did you get this pearly ear
God spoke, and it came out to hear
Where did you get those hands and arms?
Love made itself into hooks and bands
Feet whence you come from, darling things?
From the very same box as the cherub's wings
How did they all just come to be you?
God thought about me, and so I grew
But how did you come to us, baby dear?
God thought of you
And so I am here
George MacDonald - 1871
