Labor Yielded Lustrous Lovely Lass

our second of two lasses conceived 
sometimes within a blink
the exact moment auguring conception 
difficult to identify or pinpoint

whence seminal liquid 
ejaculated from a phallic chink
birth of second daughter thyself and spouse created 
while immersed in the coital drink

generally occurred during 
our naked lunch sans primal cop
yule la shun, via carousing with amorousness 
when a seminal dollop
of passion circa May 1998 that pregnant verity 
became definitive when the ultrasound
evinced a miniscule glop

pronounced by obstetrician and gynecologist 
with an impending due date 
yet unpredictable until the wife did evince 
a swelling abdominal area, an ordinary fate 

once pregnancy without doubt 
ascertained both of felt great
lee excited at prospect thee eldest 
would become “big” sister, 

which less than total devoted attention 
she would naturally hate 
upon begetting youngest punim 
indubitably saw her (Eden) irate

yet any jealousy temporarily deferred, offset 
and thwarted upon the birth
of Shana, whose anniversary 
she exited birth canal when a dearth

of being cocooned in the womb 
suddenly necessitated adjusting to life on Earth
when formerly inducing 
a bulge within the uterine hearth

and this papa nearly nineteen years 
wept tears of joyful delight
with a complete set of anatomical features, 
and gender as the girl found wife excite
head, cuz decision asper circumcision, 

a moot point re difficult conscience fight
club and prediction as per average adult height
of female progeny, number two found the sight
a biologically whipped miracle I held tight.
