As a father, I must carry on,
With the weight of responsibility, I am drawn.
Happiness or sadness, I cannot dwell,
For the sake of my family, I must quell.
Even if I fall, I cannot despair,
The lives of many depend on my care.
I am the roof of the household, the guide,
To raise morale, and instill a sense of pride.
Like the resolute sun, I must burn bright,
Lighting the way through even the darkest of nights.
The moon will prove my presence, a guiding light,
For my children, I must always be in sight.
Laughter may escape me, but I must try,
To smile and show my family I'll never die.
For I am a father, a husband, a son,
Creating a generation, the future has begun.
So I'll push on, no matter the wrath,
And never count the sighs on my path.
For I am a father, and that means more,
Than any burden, hardship, or score.
I'll keep shining, with every electron of light,
Guiding my family, through the darkest of nights.
For I am a father, and my legacy,
Will live on through the next generation's legacy.

A fine combined tribute and dedication to all good and decent fathers wherever they may be, or have been sir ..
I too am a father and soon to become a grandfather for the first time ..
Unfortunately however, not all biological or nonbiological fathers (stepfathers) even have any desire or intention of accepting and living up to the responsibilities that others might and rightly so, expect of them .. Neville
