Just a Man .....

Just a man 
A man of morals a man of love
A safety net as I hold on to his hand
He laughs he even snarls 
Sometimes he does nothing just look 
To me hes amazing 
He taught me well 
Rights to wrongs to take people for what they are
Treat others he would say for how you wish to be treated
A lesson I learnt as life treated me like the devils kind
Forgiveness is a gift he would say
Strength of you is in a smile 
Best of all he gave the wise words 
Be true to you 
Never doubt your dream always believe
This is my dad .....
Just a man ....
