EMMA WHEN SHE PASSED HER 2 MONTHS

(To our little baby Emma, Emma Mesilane)

I feel the soul of
a beautiful life, Emma
your mother and I enjoy
the beginning phase of your process

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

Long ago I wished for the company
of your mother and yours
you both fill my heart
with your tenderness and love

I enjoy singing to you softly
through the back of your ear
& while hugging you, feel the warmth
of your little body against my chest

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

Your mother & I have understood
you enjoy life better
in our arms, & thus
we carry you happily, everywhere

You are awake & alive to life
& enjoy, in accomplice with me,
exploring & routing different daily paths in Tartu

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

Your mother & I enjoy
collecting & archive
digital images of
your, so far, brief history

We also enjoy recording & editing
videos of nice moments of your life
sharing our happiness with friends and family
that also love you all through the world

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

I very much enjoy the beauty
of your body, mind & soul
you are a happy & easy going baby
who presents a beautiful character

I’ve noticed people’s amazement
when they first meet you,
the immediate reaction
is a brief 5 second spasm of admiration

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

You have funny facial gestures
when you are digesting;
your hair lifts up and people classify
your hairstyle like a punkie

Your eyebrows lift up,
remarking the power of your future seductive power;
the line marks of your body contour
are soft and round, you are an immaculate beauty

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

My heart anchors and my imagination fly
cradling your initial phase
in an imaginary life
of perfect hygiene and royal spaces…

Where I walk you in my arms
through the most sensational & magical gardens
& afterwards I bath you
in a huge white bath-tube

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

My extremities and chest have moulded to your body
my mind and heart have included your process
I’ve become an overprotective daddy
that cherishes every second of your innocent life

One of your mother’s and mine
favourite moments
is looking at your new-coming smile;
you react by smiling when caressed in the chin

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

Your mother’s refined senses
collect emotions not mainly
through the eyes but also
through the ears and mouth

She is a linguist & we both enjoy
the gesticulation of your first phonetics
when you shorten your learning vowels
in an “AGUUU” sound

So I lullaby to you:

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

With these brief words
I intend to recall the magic
of our lived memories
& touch your heart over & over again

I want to share the happiness
you have arose
& share this essential message
with everyone across the world

So I lullaby to you:

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

You are beauty itself & so I wish to keep you
I will live to protect your mother & your body, mind and soul
& wish that society cherishes my effort
to keep you both going if & when I’m gone

I am sure you are good blood & will be
strong, independent, free & happy;
You will know how & with whom to share your life
making a family & transcend in a positive way

So I lullaby to you:            

Relax your mind
relax your heart
relax your body
relax your emotions

 

I love to feel your chest with the palm of my hands
while the sound of: “AGUUU”
escapes from your nice mouth & lips
you have a beautiful soft & tender voice

I really love you baby…
with all the power of my heart, mind & soul

I imagine you “Queen Bee”
singing and dancing
& sharing the beautiful
art of your life

I really love you baby…
& will always love you

So keep on relaxing your mind
relaxing your heart
relaxing your body
relaxing your emotions
