Jean Murray Poet Acrostic

Pandemonium

P anic stations in Labour Ward
A fter the doctor cut the cord.
N urse noticed Mum's tum
D ecidedly distended still.
E mergency equipment
M ust be found, as it's 
O bvious after listening in,
N urse has heard a second twin.
I n case this baby need O2,
U rgently once it's born.
M y..what a busy morn!

Gregory Richard Barden December 9, 2017 at 5:15 PM Congratulations on your win, Jean - well-done, my friend! :-) <3 Jean Murray December 9, 2017 at 5:27 PM Always lovely to see you seeing me Greg. Thank you.

Viv Wigley December 4, 2017 at 4:38 AM Obviously autobiographical, Jean, you hero. I can never understand why newborns get so upset- the thought of being lifted up by you by my ankles and having my arse slapped is quite appealing :) Jean Murray December 4, 2017 at 9:19 AM OK then. Viv Wigley December 4, 2017 at 8:36 AM ......but you haven't factored in my lumbago or vertigo. You may have to make do with patting me on the head and ruffling my hair while i breathe heavily. Jean Murray December 4, 2017 at 6:40 AM Let me see now.....if I climb on to the now vacant labour ward bed, put my feet in the stirrup straps for extra security, you lie naked on the floor with your feet elevated....by God I think we might manage it Viv..

Eve Roper November 28, 2017 at 4:07 PM Jean, ... congratulations on your win. Hugs Eve ~`* Jean Murray November 28, 2017 at 4:13 PM Thank you Eve.

Vijay Pandit November 20, 2017 at 6:55 AM They sure are heroes--well done Jean--best for a win! Jean Murray November 20, 2017 at 7:04 AM Good morning Vijay and thank you.

Joanna Daniel November 20, 2017 at 6:38 AM Doctors and nurses are heroes too, so well said, Jean, I think that nurse must have been you:) Jean Murray November 20, 2017 at 6:41 AM Modesty forbids Jo.
