The Newborn

She gave birth to a bouncing baby boy
Too soon dropped by a nurse in employ
He hit the floor
Bounced out the door
And was found in the next room with a toy

Yeah, come to think of it, that wasn't a very good place to be having babies I guess.................80)

Ha! Good one!! I didn't even think of bounced back quickly or I might have used it in the poem. Oh well, save it for later I guess..........80)

Yeah. I often wondered if that happened to me when I was born. That would explain a lot!.........80)
