Day 878, Father’s Day, A little ditty on how one becomes a father.
Makin’ Whoopee (1)
Another ovum, another sperm,
Another human but just the germ.
It starts erotic, then gets zygotic
From Makin’ Whoopee.
There’s twenty two pairs of autosomes
Plus X and Y type sex chromosomes
Before meiosis leads to zygosis
From Makin’ Whoopee.
Picture a little germ cell.
I know this isn’t news.
Putting it in a nut shell,
Its purpose is to fuse.
So ovulate, then copulate,
And, need I say, ejaculate.
Sperm Casanovas get into ovas
From Makin’ Whoopee.
Then there’s some more migration,
Once eggs are fertilized.
If there’s no implantation,
Nobody gets baptized.
So down the tubules, away we go,
Implant and fashion an embryo.
Nine month’s gestation,
More population,
From Makin Whoopee.
Nine month’s gestation,
More population,
From Makin’ Whoopee.
