Over the years
I have had the privilege
To hold a variety of interesting roles
And follow a number of paths
That I enjoy
Computer programmer
A runner and a dancer
Writer and photographer
Musician and composer
A student and a teacher
A husband and a brother
A friend and trusted colleague
But my proudest role
The best one of all
Began one Winter morning
While I was still
A young man
And another young man
Came into my life
Courtesy of the grace
And patience of my wife
And that young man
Bestowed upon me
For eternity
The title
That I hold most dear
For it was on that chilly morning
That I became
A Father
And realized
That no other role
In my entire life
Would be as important
As fulfilling
As significant
As fun and exciting
Or as magnificent an honor
As this one
