One hot April in 1979,
A cute couple married,
Soon they were expecting a child.
.
The young lady, she wished for a baby girl
To be born on Christmas day,
More than anything in the world.
.
The imp missed Christmas day by a mile,
She was born 28 days after Christmas,
To be precise.
.
Baby’s Grandma said, ‘Hush don’t be silly’.
‘If you marry end April, the baby arrives
End January, you ninny’.
.
‘A baby on Christmas day!
Good god! The neighbourhood busy bodies
Would have their tongues wagging away.’
.
And yet, Natasha, meaning ‘born on Christmas Day’,
The tot was named! The couples’ next baby too
Missed Christmas but… nailed Valentine’s Day.😊

Wish was fulfilled, what if it was a bit late .Nice name and nice girl.
Happy Easter Natasha

Ha Ha! I love the last lines. I wasn’t aware of the meaning of “Natasha”. Thoroughly enjoyed reading your poem
So glad you liked it, Vandana. Natasha has a root word ‘Natal’ meaning Christmas. The actual name is Natalia or Natalie and Natasha is derived from these root names.💚💚
Happy Easter Nats. I didn’t know Natasha has a profound meaning as this.
Sassy poem .
Thanks Itali 💚💚💚💚
