My Foolish Dad

Gone are the days we
never had,
Lost are you that
makes me sad,
Dad you were't the
best nor bad,
Now i'm all grown
up ,not a lad,
Foolish old man,
This is what make you
glad?
Having three wives at
the time of your death!
Thinking of it still
makes me mad!
You're dead and
gone,my life goes on..
And now the world
know of your senseless
deed.
My foolish dad
forgiven not forgotten
by your son!
