Daddy of Mine

When daddy comes home, a glow sets throughout our house. He brightens our sad days, soon as he steps out. The old Chevy truck, with coffee stained floors. Dust has made its home, on his dashboard. He picks up his cup, and his lunchbox. Walks into the doorway, his boots then coming off. He's greeted by our faces, wearing the biggest smile. As he too is just as happy. He's home safe n sound. Daddy sits in his worn out rocking chair. I sit on the couch next to him, just to be near. I look over at him, he's beginning to nod off, into a peaceful dreaming. I pray then for happy thoughts. I grab my blanket cover up my cold feet. Thank God for such a good father. He's very hardworking. Every little girl deserves to have a daddy so kind. I love you, you are my hero. That daddy of mine.
