DAD
As a kid, he is such a big man
Only appreciated as much as a kid can
He is the one that kept us warm and fed
And made us feel safe, tucked in our beds.
As kids become teenagers the fun begins
I was always right, he just couldn’t win.
At that time I thought I knew it all
And he just stood back, and let me fall.
As time passed, the relationship grew
I began to realize, how much he really knew.
Now I realize how blessed I have been
My entire life, for the dad I was given.
Now as an adult, not a day goes by
That I don’t appreciate this special guy
He is now and always has been
My friend, my dad, my hero to the end.
Only appreciated as much as a kid can
He is the one that kept us warm and fed
And made us feel safe, tucked in our beds.
As kids become teenagers the fun begins
I was always right, he just couldn’t win.
At that time I thought I knew it all
And he just stood back, and let me fall.
As time passed, the relationship grew
I began to realize, how much he really knew.
Now I realize how blessed I have been
My entire life, for the dad I was given.
Now as an adult, not a day goes by
That I don’t appreciate this special guy
He is now and always has been
My friend, my dad, my hero to the end.
