Anyone can write a baby poem, and everyone enjoys reading them, young and old. Poems are wonderful to include on baby shower invitations or birth announcements. Baby shower poems can have rhythm and rhyme, but they certainly don’t have to.

Poems can be either long or short, but short is probably best for your typical baby shower needs. Poems can be sentimental, sappy or sweet. Poems can be original and creative or standard and more traditional. Don’t hesitate to add a little humor as well!

Either way, all baby shower poems are appropriate for welcoming newborn and honoring birth mother or mother to be.

The people who are most often touched by poems are those who have had children themselves. Sweet poems can remind them of time when their little ones were still young.

No one will appreciate them more than family members themselves. If you are a creative writer or have a special talent for putting words together in a special way, then you should try writing your own baby shower poems. This would make a great gift idea as well.

If you really like poem you’ve written, it can be framed and displayed as a wonderful memento or keepsake. Years later when baby has grown, think of how special they will feel knowing words that were written were just for them.
