A tough guy, tenderly describes the passionate bond between parent and child.

This Magical Thing

This, my son

moves his legs,

turns a circle

once and then again,

a couple more times.

He stops,

looks at me

and laughs

for my approval

of this magical thing

he has done.

I laugh my happiness,

loving him,

loving the magic

of his movement,

of his laughter.

His eyes

look for my eyes,

find me

growing strong.
