Father's Day

Forgiving and patient, so kind, 
Affectionate and loving, unconditional;
Tireless, hardworking without complaints, 
Humble and gentle, never does he
Ever grumble in fulfilling our needs;
Resolute and unswerving my dad is, 
Selfless, simple - epitome of sacrifice, and a strict

Disciplinarian, he instilled moral values in us. 
About my dear dad, I have much more to pen
Yes..had I got more space, I would go on and on...

Hi Ani, you must love your Dad a whole bunch, just like me - My Dad was my hero, and is my guardian angel. He was such a special gentleman, in every sense of the word. Hope you are keeping well my dear friend. A really beautiful poem. Hugs and blessings Jennifer.

this is a very sweet and loving tribute, Anitha. Sorry I've been a bit absent. Was gone all day from my house and I have a huge list of members to comment to now. Not commented in three days! I wonder if i will ever find the time to judge my contest I sponsored!!
