Country Song Contest

For a contest.

She stood in the doorway

of the hospital room

with teardrops on her face

She could already see

That tiny baby

Dressed in pink and lace

She can’t imagine

How her life

Could get any better than this

It was like

She was always waiting

For her own bundle of bliss



And she’ll always remember

And be thankful for the day

When a young girl named Katie

Showed up at her door to say

“I’m only just sixteen

And I can’t do this on my own

Can’t you please take my baby

And give her a loving home.”
