Storytime with Dad

[mybonesareyours]

While the street lay dark
we walked slowly through the passages
You took my hand and led me
from the door we left
out into the moonlight
I took a double step
to keep up with your one
And you smiled at me
as I skipped along next to you

An adventure we are going to take
you told me
I was so small
and you, so tall
Drip
Drop
Oh no
And suddenly there was an umbrella under your arm
Under, you yell
but not too loud
not too mean
just to get me under
so I wouldn’t get my clothes dirty
or wet

Is it still an adventure
I asked, curious
and you smile
Of course
