starting a family



They want to start a life
For themselves they feel alright
There is no third person to worry
They can go practically every where

The work and relationships
They carry on when they were dating
They enjoy the little riches they have
Time and carving little needs to remember

One day they think of starting a family
The words of a child ringing rubbish
Yet they feel a child brings commitment
The readjustments of a shared routine

They thought it is normal
A child brings the whole game down
They start to panic looking for ways
Parents too old to offer help

Now they sit and worry
Where to put a child when the time comes
Years of their parents time
One had to stay home be the good wife

Planning is important
They learned they have to change
The ball is round so they have worked it out
For a child is worth the sacrifice
