‘’The”
And not
“A”
Means something quite different.”
Thought Miles, kicking around in his onesies.
Auntie Jackie thrilled at the progress
He was making toward athletic prowess
Awing, giggling, at their little guy.

Uncle Timmy looked on with that ever-presence
Of the Chief’s inimitable grin.

As if life began anew with
Miles Logan,
Their own Super Hero.

One little smile.
One little person.
One little difference.
One little word.

And all is right with the universe
All is right with their world.
