To My Sis & Sis in law...

Mommy! there's nothing to do here!

Dear mommy, what's a baby to do in a womb with no view?
There's nothing to do here! Not one scrawny tree here!
No puppies. No toys. No girls... zero boys.
Not a sandbox or swings... Or those monkey bar things.
Not a park or a zoo. Mommy! There's nothing  to do!
My choices are slim. There is no room to swim.
I'm so tired of floating. I'd love to go boating.
But where's the canoe? Mommy! There's nothing to do!
I'm all in a heap here. My feet are asleep here.
I'm flat out of space. I've got knees in my face.
And I'm totally Bored with this dumb bungee cord...
I'm NOT kidding you... there's NOTHING to do!
Still... I try to stay busy. I slosh till I'm dizzy.
I practice my kicking. And hiccup-cup-hicking.
I'm working on hair. But my head is still bare.
I've tried hide-and-seek and I don't even peek.
But I'm so intertwined, I'm to easy to find.
Plus tag is no fun- I've got no place to run.
and it gives me a fit that I have to stay "IT"!
If I just had a truck. Or a small rubber duck.
Or a cat or a bug. Or a teddy named Doug.
No, wait! A balloon!
But please... buy it soon.'Cause I hear the tick-tock of your happy heart clock.
And I bet you a dime, that It's almost Show Time!
You're set for me, right?
You've got a night-light? And diapers? Shampoo?
Does my room have a view? 
I could use a good bib. And I'd like my own crib.
'Cause my schedule is sweet. It's just "Snooze, eat... repeat"
Still-a few worries more: Mommy, I think that I snore.
Plus my head's kinda wobbly. I'll need support, probably.
And nights might get bumpy. I'll wake, full of grumpy.
And you'll have a hunch, I had grouchies for lunch.
But then, out of the blue, I will gurgle and coo.
Or I'll wrinkle my nose, or discover my toes.
No, wait! I'll grow hair! WOW! There's lots to do THERE!
So, Mommy, here's the plan. Let's rest while we can.
I'll stay here longer- get bigger, grow stronger.
Then ready... Set... YAY!
I'll be comin' to play!
Well, that's it, I guess. I've got your address. Kiss Daddy for me please. . .
And give him a squeeze. I'll meet him soon, maybe!
I LOVE YOU,
                 Your Baby.
