"To My Dad"

Dedicated to my dad, Marshall Eldridge

You are my Dad,

The most skilled man I know,

Who is also generous with skills

And patient enough to teach us to grow.

I’ve always felt secure

In my Dad’s extensive knowledge.

Because of everyone you have helped,

You deserve to be acknowledged.

You have always been there when needed,

No matter what the time.

Then you would always fix the problem,

Without asking for a dime.

I am so proud you are my Dad,

Because you taught me how to love.

You taught me which people to get rid of,

And you taught me which ones were true love.
