A dad is a person
Who is loving and kind,
And often he know
What you have on your mind.
He's someone that listens,suggest's and defends,
Adad can be one
of your very best friends!
He's proud of your triumphs,
but when things go wrong,
A dad can be patient
and helpful and strong
In all that you do
a
dad's love plays a part.
There's always a plave for hom in your heart.
And each year that passes,
I'm even more glad,more gratefull and proud,
Just to call him my dad.
Thank you dad....
for listening and caring,
for giving and sharing,
but especially,for just being you!
