Today was set aside they say
For candy, hearts and flowers...

Years ago, in time long past
My mother told to me...

Tears, cascading down
A sad faced clown...

The girl-child grows and it
first appears...

Should I go at night
Or perhaps at dawn...

When I was young, I had a dream
Of how my life would be...

A father is so many things
But not all of them are good...

Larger than the universe, yet
Held in his daughter's palm...

One of many,
Yet always alone...

Something about a memory
Making time stand still...

Too long, too far
I've been away...

A man and woman
A son did bear...
