Forever FreeLike the adventures of Huckleberry Finn,
Who loved (trout) fishing in American and running loose. . .
I remember my youth—my blithe spirit,
Where there were fewer cares,
When I dreamed great dreams,
And became either the dragonslayer or the dragon hatcher.
Life: how did it get here?
How did it pass?
They used to say: “What joy awaits you!”
Certainly, it’s not the end of the world.
In fact, in the time I get to spend with my kiddos
Time turns back and running loose in our fun home
Forever families feel so real.
Yes, the perks of being a “Daddy!”
