The Writer's Almanac from Tuesday, October…

[RANDOLPH STEPHENSON]

I’ve waited all year

Only to hear

Who’s birthday I share

What celebrity fair

October twenty-one

Whose daughter or son

What Libra is there

With whom to compare

But TWA

I’m sorry to say

Decided our date

Unworthy of late

You bid us adieu

And chose twenty-two

What more can one say

When you’re born on Leap Day?!
