Watching her curled up in her favorite chair, reading her Kindle, he thought about how lucky he was to have found such a beautiful creature to fall in love with. He thought about those three little words that couples in love tend to say to each other and knew that even if those words didn’t exist, he would still know that the woman he had chosen truly loved him.

Doing the Eddie Spaghetti
The above poem was written by me when I was around 12 years old. I sanded down the wood, stained it, shellacked the poem to the wood, and gave it to my dad for Father’s Day. It’s not the greatest poem, but I’m sure it meant the world to my dad at the time. He kept it with him for eighteen years, and it was given back to me by my stepmother after my dad passed away almost twenty years ago.
