INTERESTING TIMES
Change can be so cruel
Especially during the real
Period of shredding childhood
To embrace the hug of adulthood
There is nothing more interesting
Like shaving beards
Becoming a father
Raising a child.
Change can be unkind
When childhood tears away
And the weight of adulthood
Wraps itself around your shoulders
Yet these are interesting times
The first shave of a stubborn beard
The trembling joy of fatherhood
The tender art of raising a child
