Read "Nine Month Rule" for a little humor
3:00 A. M. December 24th,
Nineteen Sixty-three,
labor began, too early.
Hubby, three children
sleeping, what to do?
Inspiration: Celebrate now,
the kids won't know the difference
and you won't miss the excitement
on their faces, the shining eyes,
the laughter, the hugs.
Daddy arises on request,
assembles toys and tricycles,
one day early.
Three hours later,
deposit kids with Grandma,
fast trip to the hospital.
Red roses from Papa
and healthy baby boy
bring tears of joy.
