HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, FATHER

I think of daddy everywhere I go,
He's a favorite memory; I love him so.

Strong as a bull; gentle as a lamb,
His influence made me just what I am.

A faded photograph on the dresser doth stand,
So I'll see poppa's face, every chance I can.

I'd be flat-out lonesome, if it were not true,
Earthly daddy's waiting, there, beyond the blue.

Eyes shining with love like beacons at night,
Few words, precious smile 'll make it all right.

Provider, protector, a love pure and kind,
A hardworking gent, for kids' he made time.

Love's the greatest trait of a Christian man,
Thank you, dear Lord, for a father so grand.
