Real Men

REAL   MEN

Where does a real man
Wear his dandelion?
In his hair?  Round his neck?
Wherever his three year old 
Daughter wants him to. 

When does a real man
Decide to leave the party early?
Before the big speech?  After the main toast?
When he remembers it’s his turn
To tell her  bedtime story.
