Father

Oh dear father, you are my inspiration,
In the city, and throughout the nation.
When life has brought me to the ground, 
You are there to bring me back around.
When in need and want you here, 
I am to know you're always near.
Through the hardships while feeling blue,
I know I can always count on you
To tend to me as you always do.
So when you want me to be snappy,
I'll be quick for my loving pappy.

Very devoted, loving and sweet ... good father's must be celebrated because so few of us know them.
