Remembering
weekend events
A fall down the stairs
Vivian bent
- 2
Backboard precautions
A score of EMs
follow flashing lights;
emergency rooms
- 3
Then a sigh, relief
no broken bones
careful slow moans
pain needs healing
- 4
Afternoon anguish
truck repair conflict
angry words exchanged
over inspection.
- 5
Then Sunday's contrast
a happy phone call
"birth's an hour away."
spouse wants strength tall.
- 6
Can she even go
After stair’ fall girth?
of course, she says
This is Mason's birth.
- 7
Off to the home birth.
at Erin's bark
Vivian and Leah
enter while I park.

- 8
"He is almost here"
I hear the father
As he looks from behind
Louisa's mother
- 9
Mom to be, in labor
her father holding;The
midwife grandma
on the floor helping.
- 10
Eight contractions
and from God’s presence
I can see him.
Mason is here with us
- 11
He was stubborn.
He did not want to breath
hear us, we coach him
Finally he breaths
- 12
"Why worry," says he
"I don't need to hurry
I just came from God;
a minute's a mem’ry.
- 13
Then I held him,
downstairs after
for Grandma to hold
as I got a picture.
- 14
Vivian and I
smiles employ.
The weekend
ended with joy
