Even a lecture on neonatal medical ethics can inspire a poetic meditation!




Two options for making a baby, with love, in 2011




Option 1

I want a baby

I need some sperm
from tall athletic and intelligent guy - graduate of course
he loves donating
check internet availability

I need some eggs
from tall, blonde, musical and athletic girl: blue eyes
she loves college: being harvested pays the fees
check internet availability

I need a womb
non smoking home, good diet, no alcohol or drugs
she loves her family but needs to feed them
check internet availability

Then the waiting
cooking with the oven door closed
I have never loved waiting
can't think of a way to speed up this part

Then I'll take over
with my commissioned item delivered ready for use
I can give all the love in my heart
that I have stored up in welcome

Option 2


We loved and joined in love
made from love something small
that grew until it burst forth
through pain
to be loved
and love those who made her......
