Three Pregnant Women

Three pregnant women on the block

Gave birth a week apart.

March 20^th, a Monday then,

Was how it all did start.

 

That’s Robin’s birthday; next to come

Was Mark, by just a week.

The 27^th was the date

His folks got their first peek.

 

Another Monday followed and

The final baby came.

Her birthday’s April 3^rd and maybe

You can guess her name.

 

If not, I’ll tell you – I’m the third

And though we once were friends,

We grew apart, for oftentimes,

That’s how the story ends.

 

But still, I wish a happy day

To pals I knew from birth,

In honor of our childhood,

For whatever it is worth.
