“For(e)fathers” part 3 of 4
3. Freedom from Want
“The third is under
standings which will secure to
every [person] peace..." -->
My father-in-law
has green thumbs but never brags
about much at all;
self-prophessed gard'ner
and hobby ecologist;
met the man roadside
doing rounds on his guppies
in the popup trunk;
a way of life such
as shown by my then boyfriend's
father was dashing;
I saw my life flash before
his son and I wed:
all we'd need was peace
enough to drive cross-country,
trunkful of guppies.
