A Father Is

A true character Who replenishes all of our needs That holds us best and picks you up Even at your weakest moments So that we do not go hungry Or sleep unclothed He who gives us the ability to find strength When setbacks are apart of life I was taught to value myself And the solid lessons in limitations that this journey would bring He believes the depth in his being This creation would never be broken Because an emphasis on fathering would never be absent I am a creation in the making To measure up to something Which he molded me Until I know all he knows He is exactly what he is needed to be A father, who will die to protect A man with nothing to lose One with no words That speaks so much volume And a smile in trouble Who gathers strength from distress To place his family as the most important thing in his life He is cautious with the actions and decisions He makes so he won't have to be responsible for their pain He is all
