poem about life as a late teen

Yes or No ?

by tempeste

With clammy hands
a very NERVOUS Christine
 waits for the test's verdict.
 
It happened all so quick;
they found a secluded niche
for their outdoor picnic.

He relished her lipstick
then popped out his joystick
and in the throes of passion
they lost it.
 
 Two weeks later;
she was decidedly feeling sick
this morning at six.

Thoughts, all but EXCITING,
now START to flow:
what if a NEW life has began to grow,
a tiny spark... to glow ?
Mother won' t handle well the blow
and father will confront her beau.

The tense wait is at its END,
what changes lay around the bend ?

She bites hard on her bottom lip,
 reaches for the pregnancy stick
and reads the test strip...
