The Good Father

2 days agoAria v1
Each day he makes the beds Cracks jokes only his two kids can hear Tending to omlets with Jesus bread A bit of Avocado one one Grass fed ground beef on another He rakes, he shovels He bakes He pats Otis on the head Drives his kids to class And even brings hot chocolate Double fisted to Zeb and Dorothy Scrubs the bathrooms Fixes the cabinets that have a mind of their own Allows all Ike’s friends and then some for sleepovers Turns down the heat Opens up his heart And still he loves her still Even after all these years Misses her Wishes she were there Sharing in their family Only the good-hearted survive Only the man who loves to serve And be with his kids May we all grow up to be him The good father
