This I Knew About You Poem by Loyd C Taylor Sr

I did not know much about you
as I felt your tiny vibrations
which later became kicks and
wiggles. I did not know about
your mannerisms or personality
or how your voice would sound.

I did not know if the tint of
your hair would be red, blonde,
raven black or chestnut brown.
I did not know the color of
your eyes, whether hazel,
emerald, amber or blue.

But there was one thing that
I did know about you, I knew
it from your first heartbeat,
even before you entered this
world; I knew it with all my
heart, mind and soul…

I knew that I loved you.


Dedicated to my grandchildren.
