Conan – The Barbarian Dad [REVISED]

Dad, Conan The Barbarian, will come visit me,
Alice in Wonderland his daughter, brought here
by his other daughter, my sister The Duchess,
on their way to De Rust in Cape Province, a


Quaint rural town situated on a mountain side
reached by driving through Meiring’s Poort and
Robertson’s Pass near Oudtshoorn where poet
and author pioneer Langenhoven lived his life


I have the unique opportunity to present dad
with his birthday cake and something else:
wish it could be a toy train, but I don’t know
where to find a perfect one, maybe the cake


Should be formed into a toy locomotive as our
dad is old - ONLY my twin sis & I love him still;
at his age he deserves something special - an
Astrogenetic Sagittarian my dad always


Charges in like Conan the Barbarian, read Terry
Pratchett to know what it’s like, to save damsels
in distress; I’ve had his support in everything -
always, he saw me a damsel needing help


Today I can be the Princess in Shining Armour
offering to help my frail ‘Barbarian’ Dad, he never
calmed down, only changed his pitch to include
Martin and me in his team as we remain


his most devout followers …
