Immaculate Reception...

Never in my wildest dreams
did I ever expect to find
myself standing in my
birthday suit - with you
in much the same attire -
awkwardly greeting your
father with little more than
one hand covering my shame
while extending the other
to shake his hand --
He grinned, which I took
for a sign that he knew
we weren't, in fact,
studying chemistry
so much as we were
performing it --
his grip spoke volumes
on trust: lucky for him,
it was not misplaced...
