early morning
before daylight
four month old
granddaughter Hadley
with grandma
on the queen bed
in the quiet loft
of the log cabin
the moonlight formed
a soft white blanket
in the darkness
on the bed where
I laid her down
we just smiled
at each other
in the dim shadowy light
and listened to the wind
whistle around the windows
Hadley was liking this
ahing and cooing and
playing with her feet
perfectly content
words were not spoken
the peacefulness
surrounded us
after awhile
I put her in her bed
she fell happily asleep
in the morning moonlight
