Getting What You Want
There are so many ways to have a baby
a bouncing baby boy or your precious joy of a girl
But there are also too many obstacles that could be in the way
you're a little miracle
no matter what anyone could say
Your mother, the main piece of the puzzle
carries you for months, where you grow
you kick and move
your mommy gets bigger and so do you
your toes and fingers form
while your heart beats loud and muscles flex
you may be a girl or boy
but that doesn't matter
because you have loving parents
that will always have your back and best interest in mind
There could be problems with mom or dad
they could try and try to have you, sweet miracle of life
but look in the face of a negative test
mom cries and dads upset
they see a doctor and run some tests
use some needles with a side of a petri dishes
they come up with you and put you back
and before you know it
you wonderful thing
nine months and in your mamas wonderful arms with daddy gazing down at you
