The Baby in the Park
I saw a woman with a baby in her arms.
The baby looked at
me, and smiled.
I laughed, laughed, and laughed a little
more.
Why did I laugh?
The smile on her face, I wanted to be a mother.
It hurt me deeply, so, I decided to adopt.
I laughed.
Now, I
sit in my bed, cradling my little baby boy,
his name is
Prudence.
He is 2 months old, and I love him dearly.
My husband and I
decided that the reason
we have Prudence today is because of that
woman and her child in the park.
So I went to find her, and she
was still in the park.
So I thanked her, and gave her daughter
a baby bonnet.
The baby liked it.
Her name was Charlene.
She was
1 year old.
The baby laughed, then I laughed,
and thanked her.
