The other month he showed up
and he gave me a surprise –
an awesome giant dinosaur
with special laser eyes!
For Christmas I got presents
such as models, games and sweets.
Whenever birthdays come around
he ladens me with treats.
He frequently pops over
to bestow a bit of cash.
The other week he bought me shoes,
and when I run they flash!
These gifts from Dad are lovely;
to complain would be a crime,
but I don’t get what I really want –
a little of his time.
