Baby's Choice
Did you ever think dear mother
as the seed of me you sowed,
as you breathed new life inside of me
and slowly watched me grow.
In all your dreams about me
when you planned me out so well,
when you couldn't wait to have me there
inside your heart to dwell.
Did you ever think that maybe
I was planning for you too,
and choosing my very own
a mother just like you.
A mother who smelled so sweet
who had hands so soft,
a tender loving creature to
soothe me in the night.
Did you ever think in all those days
when you were coming due,
that as you planned a life for me
I sought a life with you.
And now as I lay in your arms
I wonder if you knew,
while you were busy making me
I was choosing you.
