C.H.3

Renelle Nava 1977 (Lingayen)



C.H.3

Are you a good dad?
Do you correct them when they’re bad?

Have you thought about their future?
Have they listened to you lecture?

There’s a feeling of uncertainty
And a sense of curiosity

Are you a disciplinarian,
Or maybe an authoritarian?

The little ones are precious
Do you see them as such

I search your face at times
I couldn’t make a decision

There’s a mystery that surrounds you
I wonder how you do
