I Am Mark
I am a dreamer
A thinker of thoughts
A devout reader
One who tinkers with words?
And laughs at their form
Or cries at their sense
I am a man of my word
I’ll say what I do
And do as you say…
With a laugh along the way
No matter; come what may!
I am a father of two
Two boys in our image
Where boys will be boys!
Irreplaceable rascals we pride in their smiles
She laughs as we huddle –
Cries when no cuddles
I am tall
Yet it’s not a long way to fall
Although I bend
To kiss the lips of a very special friend
And sway – to get outta the way
During the month of a certain day
A husband I am
A lover; I will to be
A devoted being I am, with
Placid blood coursing through my veins
A man truly in love with his special friend
A wife for life and thereafter…
I am loved
I know that in my heart
I hear it in their voice
I feel it with their touch
I am blessed
I am Mark
