Mamma,when will the baby come she asked,

counting the baby kicks was her exiting task.

She painted the walls with pink and blue, 

and hung a board outside which said do not disturb 

this is our room!


She read her favourite stories holding my tummy, 

for some days I felt I was her baby and she was my 

mummy. 

Baby I will be waiting for you come soon, 

With all new toys she waited outside the labour room,


Holding the little baby she kissed and said, 

I am you sister sweety now go to bed!
