Courting Couple at Midnight

Norman Rockwell shows us in this illustration the most dreaded time in any suitor's evening. That time is when it is time to leave. Especially if your date is smiling and asking you not to go just yet.

This suitor is all dressed up, just as he should be. He is making a good impression. Anyone can see that he likes this young lady.

He is wearing his best collar. He has a pink carnation on his lapel. His hair is slicked back just right. Yes, sir! Just right.

The young lady has her head on his shoulder. She also is dressed to impress.

There is only one small problem.

It is midnight. The pendulum on the clock keeps on swinging, no matter how much fun they are having.

The little bird's door has just opened. He will be out to sing shortly.

The young man looks at the bird in the clock as if to say "Please stay inside for a little while longer."

But the bird will sing anyway...
