What it means to be a father
A father can be a guide and a mentor
A father can be a blessing
A father can be a best friend
A father can be a ray of hope
when all seems lost
A father can calm the storm
with his two bare hands
A father can mend a broken heart
and bandage a broken head
A father can show the way
even when there no light
A father can be strong
when he needs to be
A father can shed a tear
when the time is right
A father can be almost anything
when he follows his heart
And you’ve shown me
what it means to be a father
I love you Dad
