Babies

You could have had my babies, he whispers

I stop and think for a second,

Passion fills my heart,

Yes I could have had your babies,

I think  with a wry smile.

Hundreds of them, actually.

The way I feel about you.

I see them all lined up and it makes me laugh.

But when is life like that, I say

When is life that perfect.

In a book of Fairy-tales you say,

The one we haven’t read  yet.
