New Birth

Life springs unplanned
Her child 3 months resting
A glow in her eye, she reveals
The hidden destiny

What of love?
The birth is a problem
Doesn't fit this year's projections
Uneasy boyfriend shuffle and exchange
Rearrange, displace, and fret
What to do now?

Life continues unburdened 
Accidents all the same
