Pillows and blankets,
Of pink and baby blue.

Seventeen and in love,
Am I ready for this?

How do I tell them,
What can I do?

I've thought of this so long,
I hope he’s happy too.

Just the other night,
I dreamt of just this.

He and I connected,
Into a tiny being.

So many things to do,
To get ready for her!

Gotta show her how much love,
Daddy and I have for her.

Teddy bears and toys,
Surround her crib.

Grandma and Grandpa,
Waiting for the news.

“Mom and Dad, I'm pregnant,
And it’s my baby girl.”

< !signature-->

If you love someone dont put their name in a heart,
put their name in a circle, because a heart can be broken
but a circle is continious.

Great poem Tamma...I like how maturely you're looking at this subject...it's sad when parents aren't fit to be parents. I wish you the best of luck with this (if this poem is about you).

Tamma-
If you are happy, which you seem to be many many congrats, but I wish you could reconsider if possible, cause at 17 can you handle another human life. I'm not trying to be the party pooper here, but my sis had a kid at 21 even and she wasn't ready to be a mother. So think about it, this kid will be yours...not one you babysit for a few hours. Maybe you still have a life you'd like to live....u are young, but you are old enough to decide so make the right choice. Good luck.

Salooma

First of all, thank you all for your comments, (sadly) I'm not pregnant, I am on birthcontrol. Second of all, this was a dream I had a few nights ago, which was sparked by something that happened earlier that night:
my boyfriend was sitting on my bed, and I was standing in front of him, and he hugged me with his ear to my belly and said "one of these tymes I'm gonna do that, and its gonna be out to here" and held his hand out about 6 inches...I nearly melted...  

If you love someone dont put their name in a heart,
put their name in a circle, because a heart can be broken
but a circle is continious.
