Super Hero

Hobbling down the street and
Trying to take a little breather-
Breaking for the day underneath
The leafy cedar
Looking forward as the hill
Seems always longer
Steeper distant-
Feeling sharp pains every step
Every instant.
Three days now no more relaxing walks
To take-
Inside the house catch your breath-
Catch a break.
Labor and Delivery it's time to plan
A visit-
But not for the big moment "This is it!"
No instead to find out that
The ligament is pulled-
Strained stretched done for now-
The uterus its job to hold.
No more outside walks,
No more cool breeze on the face.
Finding the bed to be
The new molding place.
A day before the party
The graduation the big day-
Where friends and food will gather
Playing games the night away,
And don't think this pregnant lady will
Roll the dice to chance,
A big soft recliner keeps me rollin
The party still will dance.
So no I'm not the super hero
I'm the princess in distress-
And my super hero husband
Did the house chores did the rest.
He cleaned all day and rearranged
My house to hold the fun,
He pampered me and cared for me
And when I thought he's done-
He ran the errands, set the stage
He was the greatest host.
A daddy in the making-
The one I love the most!
The night was such a huge success
The show does go on-
My super hero made it possible to play
Almost till dawn-
And when the guests left for the night
And we went fast asleep-
I knew my super hero was ready,
For any giant future leap.
This Beaner will have the greatest
Daddy of them all,
For all the love he shows mommy
Daddy knows his Daddy call.
