I really like this. I'm pretty fond of small poems, myself, though. :)

This would be fine without any funky line spacings. Even so, it is quite lovely. Well done.

I think so but no one seems to want to and I have no way to force them to do so

this is lovely  your apology at the beginning takes away from the experience of reading it...i adore the title, and there's a lovely paternal warmth in the shole thing...the title makes it though...yum

I hate to say AMAZING with a title like that...(apparently you once apologized for it; NEVER do that)

But it it is an amazing poem. A fav.
