What Its Like

I wonder what it’s like to be a mother,
To hold a baby like all the other.
I wonder how it would look,
The baby in my arms I took.

I wonder how it would be, 
Giving birth of my baby to be.
How would it feel: the mothers love,
Please God hear me from above.

A baby of my own I would like to have,
One that can play, cry and laugh.
But I guess everything comes with time,
So I wrote this poem from one to nine.

One day soon I will know
When I feel the baby inside me grow,
What it would be like when I’m a mother,
Just like my friends and all the other.
