When Dad Was A Bear

When Dad was a bear,

He would roar in my ear.

When Dad was a bear,

His intentions were unclear.

When Dad was a bear,

His size was immense.

When Dad was a bear,

His words made no sense.

His teeth were sharp,

His eyes deeply glazed,

His consumption rate left me amazed.

Deep in the woods of my childhood,

His claws sliced me where I stood,

A forlorn Goldilocks where nothing's “just right,”
Where he growled with all of his might,

In and out of the den,

When Dad was a bear.
