With Child
Do you know what it feels like
To be with child is a delight
And a horror as you grow
You worry for health wealth everything else soul
Then you feel the first flutters
At about 3 months melts you like butter
Take your fingers wiggle them funny
That is how it feels in your tummy
Then your senses get cranked up
Of some things you can’t get enough
Or you may have morning sickness
And feel strange at your new thickness
Carrying a child is a big deal
Emotions go wild let Jesus take the wheel
You feel ugly and beauty at some time
Finally baby comes so sweet so divine.
