More Than Words Can Say, Papa

The first guy who kissed me by my lips Tickled me down to my fingertips Careful to handle me with every grip Selfless love without a director's script You are my first ever boyfriend Guarding me, every now and then Always ready to mend and defend ''My ideal man'', you set the blend Your strong arms have held me dear My shield through raging storm of fears Same wide open arms keep me on cheer Every time there are thunder rolling tears A gaze likened to a tiger's eye Strict and firm with my cry Yet, tender daring me with tries Letting me free to soar and fly Although now, I'm more than twenty Father, your patience is so plenty Providing me both love and penny Even when things get so messy Us, your family, is your sweetest cherry With every ounce of life's' chevy You remain ready and so sturdy My love grows for you each day Father... My ever dearest Papa. Thank you for all love you display I am sorry if by chance I disobey Do know that I love you More than those words (above) say... __________________________________________ 1:37 am, May 01, 2014
