Lawful Pilot

As an adult I often reminisce Of the days when my father Would leave with a kiss. My superhero then And still to this day He had two jobs Firstclass to me Id say He upheld the law His uniform told you so His gun in the holster Always on the go. Sometimes I would ride The speed gave me a rush I felt above the law Peoples dreams he often crushed I was a mini soldier I grew up tough and strong I beat up the boys In the playground if I was wronged He also flew the sky His captain hat on tight He controlled the plane He always did it right. At times I would get To ride along too Bragging to people My Dad is driving you. I loved the airport Like my second home I felt secure there I belonged in that zone Others looked up to him Like he was a God He lead the sky and ground With that grin and little nod. The treasures he would bring From all around the globe Pajamas from Japan And to match a nice silk robe. I missed him all the time His life was on the run But he never once forgot To make me smile like the sun.
