(My Poems)

A collection of poems that I've written
Over the last twenty years.

A mother's love

A smile on your face
As you walked through the door,
I knew right away
You got what you wished for.

Spreading the news
Of the bundle of joy,
In a few short months
A bouncing baby boy.

Then so unexpectedly
A mother's worst nightmare,
The doctor has news
He must immediately share.

This can't be happening
Please say it isn't real,
The tests are back
And your child is ill.

It's your decision
Told you have choices,
Some say don't have it
So cruel are their voice's.

But you hold it together
Managing to stay strong,
Even though not knowing
Am I doing right or wrong.

Never once giving up
A brave and caring mother,
Giving him a chance
And your daughter a baby brother.

A mother of two you will be
At times so hard to do,
Yet so very worth it
And soon all will envy you...
