Each Father’s Day I pray for dad;
Among the blessed we are but a few,
Today as I did, it struck me downright,
I ought to be grateful for two!
For one has shown me how to live,
The other, the meaning of life;
One calls me his little baby girl,
The other, he calls me his wife!
Being a dad is much more than the title,
It is no easy road;
For a father must carve a path so worthy,
His children might reach their goal.
It’s not always about blood or gender,
Or if you’ve been harsh or too mild;
To qualify the part, it is quite enough…
…that your heart was once home to a child.
