A Baby

A mum packed her baby And threw on the way Travelling in a car I read in the paper. A mum left her baby Outside the bin Used public toilets I read in the paper. A mum flew away With her new friend She has five children I read in the paper. A mum sold her baby And searching the peace Believes in a religion I read in the paper. A mum divorced her husband And killed a child She was mentally up-set I read in the paper. I can’t afford baby A baby is too expensive I amn’t a baby I read in the paper
