EXPECTANT TRAVELLING MOTHER ON BOARD

BABY TO BE THE EXTRA PASSENGER

I was on vacation heading for the West Coast

It was the Bay City

A 4 days journey and no one is going to have pity

I was on a direct route being a thru-Coach from New York City to San Francisco, CA

But I am travelling on a Greyhound bus

Everything was going smoothly

Not until

The trip started with upcoming event with an Expectant Mother and Father to be who boarded in Omaha, NE

Well the announcement for my departure from Omaha for passengers to claim their seats

It was a highway ride through the darkened night

But me and the passengers don’t know, we are about to have a plight

Look at that, we arrived in Salt Lake City, Utah

We certainly travelled far

As too be expected, the Pregnant Woman travelling was having a few labor pains

But according to the schedule, we pushed on

We just crossed the Nevada State Line

But keep Baby arrival in mind

We made a brief rest stop, but the baby is ready to see the world

We the passengers noticed the Greyhound Driver counting her contractions

What luck, we were near a Major Hospital, and they were alerted, and the expectant Mother and Father to be got off as the Hospital staff carried the Pregnant Mother on a Stretcher off the bus

Meanwhile, the Driver announced what became a 30 minute stop was a two hour stop

Timing was everything at that point

Driver told us to sit back as he was going to make up time on the road that we loss

Somehow we arrived ahead of schedule on Greyhound into San Francisco, CA

Journey of course, but for the expectancy that is another story.
