A Parental Ode To My Son Aged
Three Years And Five Months
My first impression on “A parental ode” was a slightly confused one. It was about a father talking about his experience with his son. As his son is young (a toddler) the father is full of praise, admiration and is completely besotted. As the poem progresses the toddler grows older and with age comes mischief. The young boy becomes a nuisance and the father becomes exasperated by what he gets up to.
