To a dad that raised and loved me with a heart immense
You where there for me always when things got intense
To a father which love seems to be his sixth sense
You were always at my aid, attention and defense
Never laid a hand on me, not once, never
I’ll appreciate all that you do for me forever
Pulled through tough times in which you did endeavor
You rubbed off on me now I’m creative and clever
I think I did get my creativeness from you
If you’d listen to what you say you’d know it too
I believe you are a father with a respectable view
You’re also an element as to how I grew
Sure I had some rough times here and there
But I’m happy now and I am fully aware
You worked to provide and had money to share
You can’t find that in all fathers, count yourself rare
The bond that I share with my mom is great
But the bond between you and I is equally straight
You taught me how to fish, string hooks and bait
And it all came through because fish we ate
You raised me well make no mistake
You’re a father most kids dream of but I’m awake
Taking me to work with you was fun and a piece of cake
And to think we still have more new memories to make
I am grateful for everything that I have ever had
Parents touch with a touch of understanding when I am mad
Knows how to handle that and even when I am sad
He is all that I could wish for I am proud to call you dad
