Loving A Baby ©
A Baby is crying all day and night.
A Baby is trying with all its might.
To let you know just what it needs,
in fact if you look you may find some leads.
Maybe its tired or maybe just wet,
maybe its food that you should get.
Whether its a boy or a little girl,
their needs are the same all over the world.
Feed them and burp them and keep them dry,
hold them and rock them when they cry.
A baby is important and nothing else counts,
so don't worry about piles of work as it mounts.
Listen to your heart and you will know,
do what it says and your loving will show.
