A Poem from the Harry Louis Devaney Schleifstein Collection
This Sense of Awe - Viewed 166 Times

July 04, 2009
T’was when I held Lev in my arms
I felt this sense of awe
This baby boy, my progeny
Was long and lean and tall
He rested softly near my heart
As if there once before
At ease, he cuddled closer still
And did my love secure
He stretched his fingers and his toes
And gave a little sigh
Then told his Pop Pop with each breath
On me you can rely
And though he was but one week old
His energy revealed
The babe, the boy, the lad, the man
Who future time has sealed
For with his birth has come new hope
New life, new energy
That touched upon my consciousness
And grew creatively
So Mazel Tov to you young Lev
Your dreams will be fulfilled
As knowledge, strength and perfect love
Are everyday instilled
