Pride of Place

My mum has had her womb out. We have had our womb jokes out. No womb for that kind of humour here.

She says, ‘It makes you think, when it’s gone About all the work it’s done; Four babies all in all and none especially small.’

She says she wants her womb and she’s got a plan. No, not a framed ultrasound scan. She says she wants her womb back in pride of place In an aquarium on the mantelpiece.
