Sentimental Moment or Why did The Baguette Cross The Road?
- Robert Hershon -

Don't fill up on bread
I say absent-mindedly
The servings here are huge

My son, whose hair may be
receding a bit, says

is that when we're walking
together, when we get
to the curb
I sometimes start to reach
for his hand
