I have been taking myself off to bed early in the hope that sleep will bring relief to the sickness that is filling every waking hour. It isn’t working. I can’t sleep. Last night instead of staring at the ceiling I jotted down this little rhyme. I guess I wrote it for my husband, or maybe just to amuse myself. Either way it made me smile, then finally, I fell off to sleep.
Polly’s being lazy,
and going a little crazy,
it’s all because of the seed,
she insisted that we need.
Nothing is yummy,
she’s got a big tummy,
nothing’s much fun,
she just wants her Mum.
The boy gives her kisses,
Lu holds onto her hand,
and although it’s rough now,
it will all soon be grand!
The hard days will pass,
a baby she will hold,
and all of her dreams,
will that day unfold.
So hang in there Sladey,
although it’s not your gig,
and this baby thing,
has you flipping your wig.
One day when you’re old,
when you’re weathered and worn,
you’ll thank the stars and heavens,
that this child was born.
