Notes About The Poem

Dave Crandall

Dave
Reflective, questioning, introspective, introverted 
Father of Daniel
Lover of Daniel, music, and mathematics
Who feels wonder, gratitude, and sentiment 
Who fears climate change, nuclear war, and ill health 
Who would like to see a passenger pigeon, a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and Pentangle in concert
Resident of Seal Beach, California
Crandall

Daniel

I admit, I'm awfully proud
Of traits with which my son's endowed - 
Handsome, kind, thoughtful, wise, and bright. 
Could it be, I did something right?

Hilda Greenhough June 6, 2024 at 3:24 PM A nice bio and an interesting poem. That poem could be mine, except it has to change son to daughter. I'm proud of her too. Thanks for both bio and poem. Good luck with the contest. David Crandall June 6, 2024 at 3:35 PM Thanks Hilda, having a kid gives a kind of fulfillment like no other, it seems.
