daddy
She was sitting on the veranda,
a cup of tea between her hands.
The sun was shining on her,
illuminating her very presence.
“You look like an angel,”
he said as he sat by her.
She kissed him.
“This is perfect,” he said.
“You sound a little sad,”
she said as she held his hand.
“Well you know what I want.”
She put his hand on her belly.
“Is this what you want …
Daddy?”
