no matter where he go
his love shows
he never grow old
i love him so much
he alway in touch
becase of him
and not them
my life is right
and you can bet
MY FATHER IS THE BEST
I cannot help but feel this pain
For a man that I once knew
Now as I see him once again
My words I find are few
Separated years ago
Through fateful circumstance
Life's been a hard row to hoe
But here's another chance
To tell this man I love him
As a single tear cascades
It shows a love that will not dim
A feeling that never fades
A tear that belies all I've said
In anger through the years
The stories that were in my head
My resentment and fears
Now for this man I hardly knew
I stand here and I weep
I wish him a loving adieu
In his eternal sleep
He looks serene just lying there
Although it makes me sad
My teardrops show how much I care
As I say"good-bye Dad"

Before You Were Dad
Everything your father knows
The man he has become
It was all decided years ago
When he learned to be a son
So if it seems his children
Have him underneath their thumb
It's just what he thought life should be
Back when he was young
He doesn't think that it should hurt
Learning right from wrong
And he doesn't want his kids to see
Him blow up like a bomb
He never tries to undermine
The love they share with mom
He knows if he can’t compromise
He should try to get along
A father’s love can not be taught
By words used in a poem
It’s all the things you realize
You took when you left home
And whether he was there or not
Won’t change what you've become
Because even perfect fathers
Can still sacrifice their son

She ain’t better
Than me.
The way you,
Treated me,
Is tragedy.
You love her,
More than me.
I worked harder.
You ain’t do,
Nothing for me.
The way you,
Treated me
Is tragedy.
You love her,
More than me.
But you know
Truthfully
Daddy
That she ain't
Better than me.
Appreciate the man, who gave you life
Of course the mother, his wife
Father I love you, proud to call you dad
Best anyone could have, Best I ever had
I love you more than words describe
Over the years of bonding we have came together like a tribe
I tell you it all, you listen to me
You help me always get through
This day today is for you, live it up have some fun
Make it better than the last one
Hold in you heart that I love you, and know why I feel this way
Dad have a happy Fathers Day.
I LOVE MY DADDY
Two tutus, too
Laying on the ground
Ballet slippers strewn all around
One complete wall with mirrored glass
Chattering girls waiting dismissal of class.
A gaggle of Moms waiting patiently
Knitting and needlepoint surrounding me
The one lone island of masculinity
That rare father with custody.
I smile at my ballerina and she smiles back at me
We’ve been on our own ever since she was three
I just love being her Daddy
And don’t mind the role of also being Mommy.
We stay a little longer at the end of class
She shows me her plies in the looking glass
She smiles at my reflection and says, “I love you”
We pack up her slippers and the
Two tutus, too.
Reflection's Of My Yesterdays
Pop's Has a lot to say about hot shots of today, To the snot nosed teens,
Blamed on parents of today
Time to hang your badge full of pride to the tune of a new tide, Time to
salute your fellow cops Good-Bye!
As you no longer carry a snub nosed thirty eight by your side, As
your days on the beat are thru,
In my dreams I can still see that little boy
crying out to the "Lord for you, Still to this day he cry’s for affection as
your the reflection, He always seen in between the glass
as you waved Good-Bye!
Dad Guess I just admired you for so very long, As my heart still hides
from Love ,Must be true only the tough will survive.
Only this time my wife is along for the ride, And I see sadness In her eyes,
I must make this love survive, Or happy Trails are
waving Good-Bye like the reflection of my yesterdays!
When you left
I thought it was for the best,
But now I (am) not so for certain.
Understanding each other was
A struggle
Because we were so not the same.
(two cloudsmensnowflakes rarely are)
But I thought love might rise above
And it couldn’t.
And I wept.
Yet now I understand
You have your own wants and dreams,
As do I,
So you had to go and realize what life
Had left out for you to find
Be it love, success, or happiness elsewhere.
I hope you can realize
That I love you
And I understand.
an ambitious personality,
comes your way,
when my dad walks d red carpet.
his goals are ready,
his mind is alwayz set.
he loves his loved ones
his love is weighed in tons
he is sweet
he is the kind,
to pull a sheet
on a sleeping person.
his life lives in his daughters
and his success is his girls
his love is in three
two daughters and wife
he is a man
guarenteed you will never see!
his emotions are straight
he is handsome and dashing
and soft and cuddley
he is my best buddy!
he will do anything
for me,
i know
because THAT he
is my father,
whom i love more than me
