Baby to be

Your jelly feet
my wobbling tummy
your tiny turns
its a call for mummy

I can see you in the ultrasound
hip-hopping
sleepily knocking

Open up, let me out....

Wait tiny nose
hold that little pout

Wait a little more
you growing embryo
let the heartbeat steady
let the world be ready
for your tiny hands
and the promiss in them
for your closed eyes
and the light in them

Baby,
wait to give me life
as I wait
to give you birth.

-Mama to be
