One of Russell's poems:

She said she wants a baby

She said she wants a baby,

I hope she understands.

It's another pair of feet,

another pair of hands.

It's another little mouth to feed, another little heart.

Another little person, another little part.

Another mouthy young one, to discipline and raise.

Another little mind, just waiting to be praised.

Another pair of glasses, or braces for the teeth.

Another pair of shoes, for those precious little feet.

Another time to worry, of what the future holds.

Another time for hope, as dreams are being told.

Another little bond, to carry through this life.

Another little part, of a husband and his wife.

Another little person, to carry on each day. She said she wants a baby, she held one just today.
