A Father

He had a baby
it’s tiny and pink

The man I never even
thought would wed
is a father today

I know he will be a good one

because
he taught me
and took care of me

He was my hero
my champion

I saw him
with the eyes
of a child
with the heart
of a child

even though he broke it
in the end
it was always his
without reservation
without fear

Before the apple
when I was in the garden
it was his

When I was
as small and pink
inside
he held me

That tender look
on his face
is what I’d always wanted
to see

He had a baby
