POEM: Heirstyle
This was written for the CPC Friday Fling poetry challenge, where family is the topic with no particular form recommended.
HEIRSTYLE
His middle name is my first.
Sometimes he can do his worst.
He’s my weekday companion,
in his way a family champion.
Two years old with a big toothy smile
when he sees his grandpa, that’s his style.
His grandma gets special attention,
which she returns without hesitation.
Tyler Robert is a joy,
a happy, playful little boy.
I change his diapers, feed his face.
In our family deck, he’s a little ace.
