This Man
There was this man, this wonderful man,
Who suddenly left this world.
He was a man, that when he spoke,
His words were worth much more that gold.
Everyday, he would go to work,
So we can have a better life.
He was a man, who never gave up,
Never hesitated himself to sacrifice.
He always laughed, never cried,
He never showed disrespect.
He was a man, that warmed people souls,
With him, you'd never know what to expect.
This man, he was my father,
A husband, grandfather, brother,uncle and a son.
This man, my dad, became a legend,
To each, and everyone.
Thank you Dad, for everything,
For unselfishly giving what you can give.
Because of you, I am a better person,
Because of you, I learned to live.
