Remember the Father
It seems to me we notice
All the little things
Only when he yells
Or his words sadness brings
He isn’t some giant hero
Sent from outer space
He is just a man
Offering loves embrace
He gave us a smile
Then he gives us all
He is always here
No matter when we call
He reaches out to hold us
Protects us from all harm
He might be harsh at times
He offers open arms
He gives us his attention
Tucks one into bed
Listens to our questions
Kisses our forehead
We never stop to thank him
Expecting him to be there
He is only human
There is no time to spare
Life is to short
To let this slip by
Just call The Father today
Even if you just say “Hi”
Take the time to remember
All he is to you
Remind him that you love him
And that your love is true
Whether it is your father
Or one that you have known
Send out a special greeting
In case they are alone
