I wish I knew you better. You're the one
Who's difficult to know, just like his Pap.
Your brother's like your mom: a heart with feet,
Though his are small and fit into his yap.

A darkened room with ducks. My shift is done,
But still I watch--though I should wake my wife--
Your hand caressing Sheepy's ear in sleep,
The gentlest thing I've seen in all my life.

Someone will love each man that you become;
Someone will love each boy, both big and small.
But though their love for each runs true and deep,
I will have loved the gentlest of them all.
