My Daddy

My Dad, a huge giver
he gave and never asked for anything in return
he would write checks to charities
friends never paid him for what they bought from him
he always had time for me
My Dad, with his wisdom
tell the truth and never lie
be honest with all mankind
always act and look like a lady
My Dad, the helper
ready to help others whenever needed
helped me with homework both day and night
give him a call and he would come running
