His daughter needed a poet,
To read and then to quote…
Her Dad asked me if I could be
Inspiration for a poem she wrote.
–
Knowing I had “too much color”,
I made it my business to clear….
Pictures and such he’s think too much
For young eyes and her ear.
–
Holding my breath tonight,
My relief is the Dad who asked….
Did it go well–was I a good sell–
Did I succeed in my task?
