To Bear My Father's Name

It's such a long way home from here To the place that I will always hold dear And I remember my father standing strong Who most of all taught me how to get along He was there to hear my words in counsel Sure, he was not perfect in every way possible But now when I think of him out loud To bear my father's name I am so proud. © Paul Warren Poetry
