My Daddy

I know one hero in this world
No one can compare with him.
You are everything, have you heard?
I’ll tell you in my poetry within.

When your daughter was a kid,
She was naughty little bit.
But you helped her to win,
Childish whims and stand on feet.

When she became a girl elder,
She became better than ever.
Again you taught her to go on,
To try, to be wiser and better.

Years passed, she grew again,
Today with the past isn’t the same.
Today she is an adult, as you know
Little needs from life she could gain.

Whoever she was, wherever she was
Even when troubles were close.
She has never given up easily,
Your words inspired her, because.

My dad, how I love you and I need,
Your voice, your smile in my heart I’ll keep.
You’re in my heart forever and ever,
Your wishes will come true, I believe.

My daddy, my daddy, my daddy…!

Wonderful. I wish you still posted. I'm a girl-dad. They are now strong women, like you.
