Some times Fathers feel they are all alone to put out fires and be the head of family

 

 

 
 
                                       What Did I Hear ?
 
                  
                            Raising children is like   twilight zone
                            you never know   what  they"er going to say
                            Looking at you   questioning your voice and tone
                            plus where the subject   is going to stray
 
                           You see I don't like   four letter words
                           being said in public   or over heard
                           something my parents   taught me right 
                           those words  be said   when out of sight
 
                           Now around the table  you hear "He F**ted
                           see the conversation   has just been started
                           You can't say that   in family circles 
                           that is when   my face was turning purple
 
                           In reply   they said   to rationalize the word
                           how would   let loose,fire,toot and shoot be heard
                           See how this conversation   all started got started
                           just because someone passed gas  then departed

Sometimes the simplest words apply. No use beating around the bush when you can just come out and say it… "Who died?" ;-)

I can cuss with the best of them, but at least I can carry on a conversation without resorting to using cuss words. My daughter on the other hand, could make a sailor blush.
