NEEDS AND WANTS
A baby's needs are simple food and warmth it needs
A loving pair of arms to lift and address her needs
Arms that refuse to leave her alone and heart that adore her to the core
As she grows she learns rapidly that along with needs she wants attention
She flails her arms she coos softly sending up pleas that she wants to be picked up
Ignore the pleas shrill cries follow all she needs is tender loving care and wants company
She notes familiar faces and is perceptive of touch she smiles and drools and is hyperactive
Her wants now begin to get expressed. Who to hold when and how make way
What she likes and wants to stare and reach and touch
Aimless gaze and touch teaches her to focus and recognize
In time the discerning eye teaches her food source and ways to express her needs and wants
Attention she strives to hold and seek willing accomplices and fanatics over her
The baby learns fast and rapidly and who gives in easily and who not
Amma's needs and wants are similar she craves and longs for attention too
Post partum works up a frenzy in her and shes hardly aware what to do.
