9 Contest

Nein is German for no to that we agree Maybe if you had said it you wouldn't be Pregnant, with time to stew over a babies name Will it be Tanya or Zoe or maybe William Up on cloud nine is where you will stay All dressed up to the nines until that day The baby arrives I see smiles on your faces All the anger, bad moods gone with no traces What name have you chosen, no hints so far You have named him Oscar he is your star

These aren't nine lines, NEIN, lol. Sorry, I couldn't resist. I really wasn't trying to be critical, I actually liked this contest very much. I'm good at formed writing. I see you use a lot of near rhymes in your poetry, that truly is a gift. I of course have a rhyming dictionary, but never really use near rhymes, but I see the power in them. For me they draw extra attention to the lines. Nice poem, I'm giving you extra credit for the tenth line, lol, ok no more cracks I promise.
