Darling, don't you put
the sunshine to shame,
:17:03

from one of my favorite daughters,
:17:09

Why do you have a yellow--?
:17:14
-ls that a rose?
-lt is a rose, if the truth be told,
:17:18
But by any other name,,,,
:17:21
-And it's for a lady friend, isn't it?
-That is, in fact, the very purpose,
:17:25
-No!
-Now, Sarah, come on,
:17:29
lt is a natural course of this life that
your dad would have a lady friend by now,
:17:35
l feel your mother whispering her
approval to me every day,
:17:37
And would this lady friend
be someone who might enjoy,,,
:17:41

:17:43
That would be grand, yes,
:17:46

my own father's personal ad,
:17:54
Don't laugh, lt's not funny!

And when was the last time

:18:04
-Meandering or any other way?
-Well, think of it as poetry, darling,
:18:08
As who l am
in the bottom of my soul,
:18:11
And, Sarah, my darling,
:18:14
-What?
-l'm glad you've started dating again,
:18:18
Dad, please, This is disturbing

:18:23
-At least let me have the rose,
-l can't,
:18:26

-Who else knows?
-No one.
:18:57
