A poem for Newbies Poetry contest. Prompt is 'Babies'.
Almost everyone has babies,
not necessarily of human form.
An ageing dog, or rusting car,
a favourite jacket, well worn.

You see, the term baby means several things,
a newborn, a love, devoted.
A poem, carefully crafted through time,
a valentine, sugar-coated.

Your baby means the world to you,
you give your time, your money, your heart
And when your baby enters your life,
you hope you'll never have to part.
