Oh! How I loved my dad,
And he loved me. T’was
The best of relationships we had.
He was planted in his ways,
And always thought himself right,
But gentle with me always.
Once he spanked me
When a Senior in high school.
(Kept my brothers guessin)
I’ll always remember that lesson.
I’ve forever been told,
One views their Heavenly Father
The same as their earthly dad.
Both to me, precious as gold.
One left, in my heart, a hole
When he went to be with Him.
The other fills that gab, nourishes
Me as I grow old.
Smiles and reminisces
On this “Father’s Day”
Bathe my memories in love
Of my dad on earth,
and the one from above. |
