The photographer captured your image
Digitally and on film
All the relatives oh-hed and ahhed
Over the photos done by him!

They said it looked just like you
And wasn't the photograher smart...
But the very first image I have of you
Was captured in my heart.

The moment I first saw you
And looked into your tiny face
A snapshot was permanently implanted
In a very tender place.

A mommy's heart stores precious things
To ponder all life through
And among the treasures hidden there
Is the very first smile from you.
