Ode to a back-up plan

Life might not work right the first time around.
She climbs ladders but her heart’s on the ground.
The men she meets don’t want what she wants,
They want just one night, to grab what she flaunts.
Zoe stops and thinks and dreams about life.
By now she thought she’d be some nice guy’s wife.
Their love would be pure, their wedding divine,
And one magic night, the stars would align.
Together they’d make a sweet lil’ baby.
That’s what she’d planned for her life, well, maybe.
Enough with the love! Enough with the guys!
It’s time for plan B – time to…compromise?
She puts in effect, yes! The Back-up Plan!
She’ll do it alone, doesn’t need a man.
She will get pregnant, but all on her own.
Must be some way, not…um…having to bone.
A doc could help her with this creation.
Yes! Artificial Insemination!
That’s it! The answer, the way she will go.
Preggo from sperm from a man she won’t know.
Zoe goes. She picks. Doc does some poking.
Her friends help out, but still lots of joking.
She feels like it worked, she’s pregnant , that’s wild!
Life will be great now that she’ll have a child.
She feels the love and the feeling is sweet.
All’s well in the end. Her life is complete.
She turns the corner, bumps into a man,
Who looks quite kind and says “Hi, my name’s Stan.”

Maybe now life is complete
Maybe now life is complete
