Strong calloused hands held me as a child

Father is my protector and my teacher

Every day since my birth father has smiled

Father knew we were one in the same creature

A strong bond shared through blood

He is more than a Father

The family tree has a new strong leaf bud

I am more than a Daughter

Struggles were overcome

Father is a proud single parent

Days were never glum

Father’s love is always apparent

Father’s presence is the one thing I need

Daughters know Father’s love will help us succeed
