Poem Title:
Poem
Belly, stretching skin to limits Getting heavier every day Scan says just three months to go now Can’t go quick enough I say What a miracle each new life is Passing genes down through each age Will the hair be dark and curly Or straight and blonde that’s all the rage I don’t care about hair colour So long as baby is fit and well Would be nice if we could make them So their bottoms do not smell Can’t get comfy on my left side Feels awkward lying on my right Back it is then, for a minute Here come another restless night Toss and turn until the morning Splashes sun light on tired eyes That have slept for just two hours That now comes as no surprise Every night my sleep gets shorter As my baby grows and grows Feels like I have got twins in there But the scan one baby shows Hubby is fed up with my cravings Eating him from house and home Ate some plain crisps dipped in yoghurt How can you eat that I hear him moan I could eat a plate of liver Covered well with strawberry jam Hubby thinks I’m going crazy You know I sometimes think I am High today and low tomorrow As hormones with my body play I just can’t wait to hold my baby Must get the nursery done today Bag is packed and at the ready We even did a dummy run To the hospital that is closest Getting lost would be no fun
