  1. They would've gotten to the hospital in time, but it was rush hour, and traffic was backed up on the bridge. Deb was moaning.

    "The baby's coming, I can feel it!" she said. "I gotta push!"

    "Pull over, Fred!" Micky ordered. His brother pulled over as far as he could, but on a bridge there's not much of a shoulder.

    Micky climbed into the back seat to check out how things were going. Deb let out a wail.

    "Baby's #crowning!" Micky said, awestruck. "Go ahead and push!"

  2. That's no December #Sky!
    Surely 'tis #June
    Holds now her #State on high
    #Queen of the noon.

    Only the #Tree-tops #Bare
    #Crowning the hill,
    Clear-cut in #Perfect air,
    Warn us that still

    #Winter, the aged #Chief,
    #Mighty in #Power,
    #Exiles the #Tender #Leaf,
    Exiles the #Flower.

    Is there a #Heart today,
    A heart that grieves
    For #Flowers that fade away,
    For fallen #Leaves?

    - Robert Fuller Murray, American-English #Poet, A #December Day
