Nick's Poetry Corner

WHAT DO MOTHERS THINK?

Will it be he or she?
Will it be like him or me?
What’s the colour of its hair?
Not that I would really care.

Will it be just meek and mild
Or perhaps a little wild?
Will it go for fame and glory?
What, oh what will be its story?

There’s one thing I know for sure
I will love it more and more
And with every passing day
I will guide it on its way.

The future holds a lot of joy
No matter if it’s a girl or boy
We will watch it start to walk
Listen when it starts to talk

So whatever ‘it’ may be
We will tend it carefully
Hoping it finds happiness
With the ones who love ‘it’ best
