BABY'S CHOICE

Did you ever think, dear mother,
As the seeds 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 for my very own,
A mother just like you?
A mother who smelled sweet and who
Had hands so creamy white,
A tender, loving creature,
Who would soothe me in the night?
Did you ever think in all those days,
While you were comming 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!
