In this collection of one hundred poems, author Daddy Dave leaves a legacy for his son in honor of his twenty-ninth birthday. This compilation represents a group of stories, thoughts, observations, and beliefs that reflects the memories, concepts, and philosophies of the family.

Written in free-verse, non-rhyming style, many of the poems convey the magic bond between father and son, as shown in "Here's to Expi." "/ I was at the top / of the gravel driveway, / slowed some, / and then casually asked, / "Son, can you keep a secret?" / "Yes, Daddy." / Then I braked hard, / pulled the car to the side of the road, / stopped, / looked at you / straight in the eyes, / and followed with: / "Will you?"/ This intentionally dramatized / follow-up and serious / question / caught you off guard, / but you paused, / thought it through for a moment, / and then humbly replied, / "Yes, Daddy." /

The Twenty-Ninth Poem: Vol. 1" demonstrates the love and admiration poet Daddy Dave has for his now-grown son and is intended for him, to be passed down, dwelled upon, thought through, and remembered.
