Bombs away

My phone began to ring
Holding in my hand
A call from my kiddo
"What's going on , Cory my man "
We talked about our white sox
The super bowl pools we are in
How cool it would be
To have the numbers that would win
"How's work going Cor ? "
I'm happy he's found his nitch
" it's going pretty good dad
I made the company s presidential  list "
"Wow kiddo that's fantastic .
Do you get a bonus for that ?"
He said he's offer a vacation
A seven day carribbiean trip
But they are taking a pass on it
The zeeka virus is the reason why
You see the virus affects unborn baby's
And in Morgan's condition , we don't dare try
"That's right dad Morgan's pregnant
Welcome in a granddaughter or grandson "
"That is freakin fantastic Cor"
And so landed bomb number  one
"Yeah we found out just the other day
Should we come back in 6 weeks ?"
The doctor said as he is reading her chart
"Make it 4, I want to monitor both their heartbeats "
"Both?" I questioned what I just heard
For his voice got fuzzy from the wind
"Morgan is due September 11th
And yes , we are expecting twins !"
"Whoa" is all the words I could say
Now that's s bit of news
An explosion again landed nearby
Must have been Cory's bomb number two
"Congratulations my man " I said
As I fell back against a wall
"I'm so happy for you and Morgan.
How is she doing through this all?"
"She's been kind of tired and weak pretty much,
You know it happens the first few weeks .
We are kinda just taking it all in
Making sure she gets enough sleep."
I said,"Hey Cor, about where you're living.
A one bedroom apartments not big enough"
I mean just walking up to your front door
Those 42 steps got to be getting tough "
He said they've been talking, agree the same
That moving also is in the mix
"We're looking at moving into house now dad"
And bomb number three was a near miss
"Well Cory , if there is anything you guys need my man
If there is anything I can do ,
Remember I only work 82 days a year
I m here if you need me , make sure Morgan knows that too"
"thanks dad ", Cory then said
Knowing bomb number four was ready to drop
"We are looking at living in Cleveland dad,
A five hour drive is just a skip and a hop!"
So as I picked myself off the chair
And realized how God has a plan
To change young children into boys
And an innocent boy into a man
I now am becoming a grampa
Although I don't feel like I'm really that old
Let's see how twins are going to affect our lives
Theyre pretty cool to raise or so I've been told
