Yesterday’s baby….Tomorrow’s Leading Man.

It’s the 4th of March

Yesterday’s boy

Is ten years today

Oh, how time flies.

*************

I remember when I found out

That I was pregnant

I hated myself

I blamed God.

****************

Why would he allow this?

We ‘re just barely getting by

And now another child

Lord, you must be messing with my mind.

*************

No! I am not ready,

Can’t bear the pain all over again

I’ll  rather stay with one

But He had better plans.

*************

Unlike the previous pregnancy

He was mild a little

I told myself, “This will be stress -free

So I walked into the Hospital.

***********

Excuse me, I’m ready

Can we get this over with

With a little anaesthetic

I watched as the doctor

Cut me again from below.

**********

Behold my little boy

looking so radiant and bright.

The Mini-me they say,

But with a mind of his own.

We named him Wonderful

That’s what he’s been

My pride and joy

Wonderfully and fearfully made.
