Melissa's Wedding Day

Its a bright golden day A wedding day is planned The bride is 8 months pregnant Tries to hide it with her hand Now that bump is more than a handful As we are yet to see Cos she starts to fidget Has a pain or two or three Hang on we try to tell her Lets get you married first She takes a few deep breadths Hope the pain doesnt get worse So the registrar does her job As fast as she could Cos baby is on the way Things arent looking good As the bride said her vows Her waters broke 'oh my' We reassure her its ok Hoping she doesnt cry There's a wedding meal planned speeches to be made We tell the friends go on enjoy But video it instead So thats how we have the video Of a wedding breakfast but no bride Her and her new hubby Were sort of busy deep inside The maternity wing of the hospital where I am midwife its a laugh As I take off my glamour gear To don a hosp gown and mask So instead of eating a lovely meal I am here doing what i do best Delivering a little boy Now can we all get some rest?
