Dadtime Stories

He creates strange voices

Sound effects

Peculiar noises

With wild surprises

Shrieks of laughter

While we hope all stories end

Happy ever after

There are moments of intrigue

Thrills! Adventure! Action!

Gripping me like magnetic attraction

New ideas, new facts, new words, new places

Sharing some sad moments

But mainly wide smiling faces

And a closeness between us

That nothing can beat

When Dad reads to me at bedtime

Before lights out

Asleepzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
