Don'T Worry Baby

my life's tolls had unfold
was thirty eight or so

had to make some life's decisions
with fine tuned perssions

whether to keep this unborn child
or abort it and carry burden for a long while

was ready to tell the world the news
father was not happy and left my heart feeling blue

first words right out his mouth abort or we were through
twenty years given what was I suppose to do

even with my stomach illness I did not come unglue
I knew she was heaven sent and odds were going to be few

I was catholic and I just could not do
So I chose the latter and now me and the father are through

For theres no feeling in the world like holding your baby so brand new
And watching her grow into a young lady and having a family too

Oh Kathy, you touch my heart so. A story with a happy ending, as I know the powerful love between you and Jenny. Is there anything else greater on earth than love? Good luck in the contest, a winner no matter what. Love, Shar

I loved your poem! I am happy for you and your child..I feel sad when life isnt there. I always wanted children, never could medically have any. God bless.
