Custodial Weekends
They come out
on weekends
Dad, it's almost
always Dad
with a daughter
or son.
He stands just a
little too close,
smiles just a
little too long
uncomfortably
comfortable
wondering
how it ever
got this way.
He cannot answer
all the questions
they both know
things sometimes
change but
he will always
be there
helping as best
he can.
