My Father, My Hero

So many heroes, I have know So many heroes’ names untold The greatest still is kind Loving and even smarter then he knows He holds the love of so many But no one loves him more then I His oldest Daughter, Sarah Jho So many lives have change for the words he wrote Some find it hard to believe such beautiful words come from A man who stutters so very bad But make no mistake the most amazing poet of our day Stutters as he tries to read the words he wrote The greatest hero I have know has overcome so many pains He battled drugs most of my life Now years clean and he is back in my life Hepatitis was the next test But with no surprise as I knew he would He won that test But saddened still nerves Would die and he can labor no more and he feels a useless foal But my hero do not worry for what God has in store For a poet’s hands are meant to write Hold a pen, and dance on paper To create a piece of art God has chosen a new path for my hero’s life
