My Icon

How would I have ever been able, Able to keep up with and win the challenges of life All alone by myself without an insight, Insight into what I was venturing into. yet, I am able to take every fight in good fate All because I have been prepared By a hand that is able and capable. How would I have ever been able, Able to have swam across the ocean of life All alone by myself with no strength, Strength enough to see me through. Yet, I have been able to keep up with the tempest All because I have been prepared By him who knows most of all it takes to stay aloft. You have proven yourself an Icon, An Icon I have come to respect above all. Your diligence in discharging your responsibility, Guarding and guiding jealously yours Described and directed the route of life My life would have been a total waste Without the role you played in it. Your love in generations will be revered It takes anyone to be a father But someone special to be a Dad. My life to God and you I owe. Thanks for preparing me well In meeting the challenges of life With a well prepared mind and in good fate. Thank you Daddy Oh, how so loved by me you are.
