Analysis of Nicu Mommy
NICU MOMMY
It's ok mommy don't you cry
I'll get better soon I'll surely try
Please mommy don't be sad
Really, I'll be ok it's not that bad
I like it when you read to me
And when you tuck me into my snuggly
I love ut when you sing so sweet
I can almost tap to every beat
So please mommy don't be sad
Even though I know it must be hard
Just know one day I'll be home with you
I cant wait mommy it's long overdue
And late at night when you sleep
I promise not to make a peep
So please mommy continue to pray
I'll be home soon it's where I'll stay

About this poem
After 13 miscarriages I got pregnant with twins who spent 3 months in a NICU they were born at 24 weeks and 5 days extremely premature I was inspired by the fear I felt everyday waiting hoping and praying they would be strong enough to come home
