A Father Is,,,

F-earless...
A great man is not the one 
fighting in a battle
Nor he who can jump out of 
space shuttle...
How about a proud man 
holding a baby bottle?

A-ffectionate...
The moment he hears the 
child's first cry
His eyes overflows with 
tears..."Oh my"
As if he could fly as high as the 
sky...

T-eacher...
He plays a huge part of who 
we'll become
Teaches by example, he is 
really awesome!
No wonder for us, he's the 
most handsome

H-ardworking...
He has a sturdy hand that 
works all day
And/Or even at night if it's 
necessary...
Finish our education is what 
he wants as pay

E-ncouraging...
He teaches us to be wise and 
to be strong
Shows us what is right and 
what is wrong
For us to realize, sometimes it 
takes so long

R-ole Model...
Fathers can sometimes be a 
steel man
In shaping up his beloved 
daughter and son
Love our father, because we 
only have one!
