Happy Fathers Day

To all those Fathers whose shoulders are like pillars of steel

Who are as dependable as the Moon — the Sun — and the Stars

Got heart as infinite as the galaxy is far

Who are like papa bears protecting their precious cubs

Who didn't just do the deed — but always there

Never faltering in times of need... 

Even to those who failed to come through

GOD forgives — we should too 

And as long as you are breathing air

It's never too late to apologize for not being there...



Happy Father's Day to All!! 




Created for a Special Father. You know who you are.
