From The Workship Collection Joe My Belvoed Beau

My parents did not know About Joe My beloved beau And what the maturing character did Making him a heroic paternal twit One day with spring in the air Did not have a care Joe My beloved beau Visited General Dollar Feeling the tightness to the matrimony collar Passing through an electronic open door Walked the retail floor Blue lights suddenly went off Everybody around him started to cough “Is there a doctor in here?” Someone called, swelling a tear Joe My beloved beau Took control Acting very bold Grabbed a ‘to do list’ pad Using a provider pen, the future Dad Scribbled and scrabbled Writing, looked like baby babble “Did you pick up what you needed?” Inside voice greeted Little bit of this Got a kiss Little bit of that Bride got fat Soon there was a little one From a night of gymnastics fun Joe My beloved beau You made me The aqua siren shined with glee Boy is on the way Delivery message did say Pushing the basket Not masking it Joe My beloved beau Smiled Arriving, ranked and file Unloading the necessity pile Diapers and stuff Child bearing is going to be tough Only a few months from now No longer looking like a cow Two of us Will take the bus Pinching pennies a must But will come together again Then send Another take out order Requesting a daughter Natural in pink Schooled in, performing the luring wink Creating more Patron traffic, visiting the family friendly department store
