A Worthy Father

            Grand and blessed

            You came into my life

            When it was a great big mess

            Healed my wounds, fixed my problems

 

            That of a father, companion

            A convenient man

            Precluded the broken hinges

            Of my imperfections

 

            Just and Tranquil

            Yet you have your flaws

            But only such that suit you

            Neither more nor less

           

            Solicitous about my life

            I find compassion in your voice

            Beautiful and right

            So few can say

 

            Without dismay

            You are a good dad, despite your pain

            But such keeps you human

            We share a same

 

            Relation between us

            So I thank you in high praise

            Great in ways, words can’t explain

            A worthy father so I say…
