Father's Day

You put a smile on my face
Every time you crack a joke, everyone is amaze
When you get a coin in my ears
And when you blow up all my fears

When I strum the guitar that you gave to me when I was ten
We play together the musical notes of life
I’m glad that I belong with you, you from heaven
Together we play the melody from the star light

You taught me to ride a quadruple bike
Even if the balance was not balance to three until it became twice
I know that you are there holding my shirt, standing
Never let me fall, until I learn my lesson of moving

We made our first kite together
 It was blue; white is the tail, sticks holding the long thread
It looks like your dream for me and our hands holding it tighter
FLY HIGH! And it turns to cool certificates in the space near my bed

You’re a love adviser next to her and her
Giving some points, make my first fall in love with me
But for now she’s my EX, and you still giving another
Trying to bring up my heart, and learn to love my forever

Your foot steps are always at the back of my feet
When I’m down, you lifted me up as you show your teeth
You tap my spine and will say the magic word
“Look at me now” say cheese at your side is our Lord

And now it’s time to give you a hug
I know that you do not have a social net and hates TAG
Personally, I will say the title of this with happy ad
Thank you for everything, LOVE, LIGHT and LIFE
You’re the best, I love you dad…
