Getting to Know Your Parents as Friends - (An Interview with my Dad), for the very reason of trying to celebrate our parents while we still have them around.This is for entry in @hurlamideh's poetry contest to celebrate our dads. I love this idea, and I love the story @hurlamideh has behind this idea, as I recently posted something about my dad in
This most likely won't be the typical entry, but I'd like to share a little card I wrote him for Father's Day when I was fresh out of college. (It's beyond silly - don't worry, I don't consider this Shakespeare).
The card was written on a yellow ruled paper pad that we kept in the kitchen for grocery lists and other notes, and was left with a bag of Sunflower Seeds as a present (his favorite thing to do is lay on the couch and watch ridiculous political tv, smoke, and eat sunflower seeds). 😅
Here is an actual copy of the poem, just as is, left on the kitchen counter:
The transcript (in case you can't read my 12-yr-old boy handwriting lol) reads:
I would buy you a card
If I wasn't so broke
Isn't it a shame
This country's a joke.
I hope you have a good day
Watching Fox News
Enjoying your seeds and cigs
While mom enjoys the booze.
I love you :)
