WHEN YOU WERE A BABY ....

When you were a baby

cries of hunger filled the air

we held you in our arms

and fed you milk and care

When you were a baby

we changed your nappies everyday

so that you are comfortable

and healthy down there

When you were a baby

we gave you warm baths daily

cleaning and wiping you

till you smiled gleefully

We cajoled you

and we played with you

everyday was a delight

like a brand new you

Sometimes you'll cry endlessly

and we'll hold you lovingly

singing you a lullaby

till you sleep like a baby

at times, your cries were scary

and it made us worry

....why are you crying ?

....why are you suffering ?

So off to the clinic we go

and it's just a minor ailment

....nothing to worry

erasing our predicament

When you were a baby

you were our pride & joy

our dear little darling

our cute little Wen-ning .......
