Sheltered,
I lie
in the lea of your arms,
Safe
in the knowledge
I am your child,
Forever Yours

the spaced out lines from that first stanza gives confidence of foundation for growing up without just memory as some had favorite first grade teacher but mother that home schooling can instill further in long leanings.
