More' n force gore
     and seven years ago
tha youngest daughter of
     Willian and Sylvia Zison
     found her beau
pea ping over a paperback
     (at present aye got nada clue
of the title), un been

     knownst to him, he would be do
wing lifetime penance as a husband
     and father, no longer
able to keep his head underground
     like an ostrich or emu
foisted into marriage
     when male adroit flagellated cell

     didst ova whelm, and subsequently flue
max, a panic prone
     pencil necked geek soon to learn goo
goo gaga, and brushing up
     on Horton Hears a Hoo
learning to swaddle

     airtight as an igloo
though a devout atheist gentile,
     he attests genealogical lineage
     linkedin many a Jew
but unfortunately only
     scant details this groom knew,
which sketchy family tree
     did include loo

knee, goofy, and crazy
     offshoots, (essentially deadwood
     pruning hooks never took down),
hence weak human DNA stock
     freely germinating cow
     wards less bright than
     cloven hoofed bovines moo

ching and sometimes
     tasting ****** Semitic brew,
especially espying bear naked lady
     even yours truly
     hollered yabba dabba doo
tasting verboten fruit
     predestined to sire daughters
     after enjoying despacito while playing flue

gull horn spitting
     spluttering semantic glue
whereby biological totally
     tubular fates loosed full bore
obligatory, yet paternal loving chore
foisting dada track detour
invoking fatherly delight
     as fate found me to explore

the joys and sorrows
     engaging das mister Harris
     chieftain, sans family of four
attending, diapering,
     and pampering galore
which necessary task
     aye could, nor would
     be able to ignore

from which pier rill us
     infant sea bay bee
     launched jarring
     insightful growing pains
     attendant 'pon requisite
     summery autotomy off spring ,
     when tears streamed
down cheeks as more

declarations of independence
     meant nudging flight while pour
ring heartfelt love shore
ring, and anchoring,
     viz Harris black strap -
     ma lasses survival skills,
     thence giving progeny Thor
row lee - wharf fare

     leveeing my best dammed
gluten and MSG free
     emotional bulwark whar
renting channeling con
     currently bolstering your
     preponderent swell alcove
harboring shipshape bon voyage.
