Daddy, I love you
For all that you do.
I'll kiss you and hug you
'Cause you love me, too.
You feed me and need me
To teach you to play,
So smile 'cause I love you
On this Father's Day.
My Dad
When I was just a little
kid,
Do you remember dad,
The time you kissed my bruises,
When I was hurt real bad.
It seems like only yesterday,
You wiped away my tears,
And late at night I called your name,
To chase away my fears.
Though time has changed your firm grip,
Your hair is snowy white,
You gait's a little slower now,
Thick glasses help your sight.
Oh, do I thirst for years gone by,
To be that growing lad,
Re-living all of the memories,
Of growing with my dad.
So Many Things
A Father means so
many things.
An understanding heart,
A source of strength and support
right from the very start.
A constant readiness to help
on any given day.
With encouragement and forgiveness,
No matter what comes your way.
A special generosity and always affection, too.
A Better Place
You gave no one a
last farewell,
Nor ever said goodbye.
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God knows why.
A million times we'll miss you.
A million times we'll cry.
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.
In our hearts you hold a place,
No one else can ever fill.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn't go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day God took you home.
We will meet again some day,
I know in a better place.
I thank God He made you my Dad,
While you were here on earth.
Take My Hand Daddy
Take my hand daddy,
and help me through the snow.
I’m still little and the snow is deep,
I have a long way to go.
I’m glad you took time to play -
To help me up this hill;
One day I’ll be all grown up,
And will have your shoes to fill.
So take my hand and lead me,
‘Cause it’s no fun to play alone;
Someday I will laugh, and play
With children of my own.
You've Been
Everything To Me
You've been
everything to me: a father,
Teacher, playmate, model, conscience, friend.
Sometimes I'm not certain why you bother,
If your feelings on my words depend.
I know I haven't been the child I should:
Far from it, and I really can't say why.
I know exactly what I'd label good,
But in the real world something goes awry.
Underneath my actions there is love,
Gratitude, respect, and admiration.
Sometimes I don't know what I'm thinking of,
But I thank God you're in for the duration.
I'm sorry, sorry for the things I do,
But please believe I cherish Mom and you.
Walk Beside Me Daddy
Walk alongside me,
daddy
and hold my little hand.
I have so many things to learn
that I don't yet understand.
Teach me things to keep me safe
from dangers every day.
Show me how to do my best
at home, at school, at play.
Every child needs a gentle hand
to guide them as they grow.
So walk alongside me, daddy -
We have a long way to go.
Daddy
Daddy I love you with
all of my heart,
as I have done right from the start.
When I cry a tear you are always there
You soothe me and hug
me when I get a scare.
If I have a problem,
you are always there to talk
When I get lost
beside me you walk.
I thank God that he gave me
a daddy so true.
and I hope now you know
How much I love you.
My Dad and I
My dad and I-we think alike,
He knows just what I mean
Before I even say a word
He reads, well, in between.
My dad and I-we like to fish
Or build a model plane,
Or fix a broken chair or two
Or just a windowpane.
My dad and I-we know the score
Of every single game;
Sometimes he's really busy, too
But he takes me just the same.
My dad and I-we go swimming too,
Each year and sometimes twice.
My dad and I-we do everything;
My dad-he's really nice.
By - Phyllis C. Michael
You Never
You never said I'm leaving
You never said goodbye
You were gone before I knew it,
And only God knew why
A million times I needed you,
A million times I cried
If Love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died
In Life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place,
That no one could ever fill
It broke my heart to lose you,
But you didn't go alone
For part of me went with you,
The day God took you home.
Father's
Over the years
As we grow old,
We remember our father
So brave and bold.
In the garden,
Leaning on the plow,
He would listen to me;
I see him now.
He would give advice
And understand;
He was always there
To lend a hand.
God made fathers
Strong and firm,
For he knew our lives
Would have great concerns.
So he gave us fathers
To teach us to pray,
And guide our lives,
And show us the way.
So on his day
Let's take the time
To say "Thanks, dad.
I'm glad you're mine."
By - Mary Frances Bogle
More Than A Dad
You’re more than a
dad
But a kind loving, kind man
You showed me the ways
which I would understand
You taught me good from bad
And all I should know
I love you so much
and I write this to show.
You’re not only my dad
but my very best friend
and I’ll love you forever
from now until the
end.
Daddy, I Love You
Daddy, I love you
For all that you do.
I'll kiss you and hug you
'Cause you love me, too.
You feed me and need me
To teach you to play,
So smile 'cause I love you
On this Father's Day.
I am thankful for all
your care!
Dad your wise words
have stuck with me
Just like pollen sticks to a bee
I need you just like
I need air
and I always know you will be there
Sometimes I make your
life hell
but I know you love me just as well
So please trust me,
this is true
with all my heart I do love you!
The message that I
want to share
is that I am thankful for all your care!
By - Marinela Reka
Thank You, Dad
for always being
there
for being strong
yet showing you cared.
For being my protector
and setting the rules
for the rides, the money,
and the help with school.
For all the times I was grounded
for my own good
I may not have been happy,
but I always understood
that I am lucky
to be one of the few
to have a Dad that loves me
as much as you do.
I love you, Dad.
My Daddy
The first day I met
you, to young to understand.
That my loving, caring daddy was holding my little hand.
I must of seemed so small and fragile as can be.
But when I looked at you, my daddy was all I could see.
As I grew older and needed your helping hand.
I know it was hard with all of my demands.
But even through the hard times and those younger days.
I would thank the Lord for my daddy every time I prayed.
Now I am a woman with a son of my own.
I hope I can teach him all the love you have shown.
He can love my daddy in a very special way.
He will be Grandpa each and every day.
Dad I wanted to tell you what you mean to me.
In my heart my daddy you will always be.
- Ellen Shost
Greatest Daddy
My Daddy Is The
Greatest;
The Best Dad There Ever Was.
He Always Brings Me Lots Of Joy;
He’s My Very Own Santa Claus.
My Daddy Can Do Anything;
He’s Smart As Smart Can Be.
I Love To Walk And Hold His Hand
To Show He Belongs To Me.
I Love My Daddy!
My
Stepfather
Although You Are My Step-dad,
You’re Really So Much More;
We Get Along So Well;
We Have Really Great Rapport.
You Always Listen To Me;
I Know You Really Care;
When I Really Need You
I Know That You’ll Be There.
I’m Learning Really Good Things,
Just By Watching You;
Thanks For Being My Step-dad
And For Being A Good Friend, Too.
A Good Dad
Most any man can father
a child
for this we know is
true,
but to be a good dad
there's a whole lot more
for all these men to
do.
They have to have strength to endure long days
even though their
bodies be tired,
the love in their
hearts has to show in their eyes
to the child who so admires.
They have to show honesty through each day
and show that life is
worth living,
they have to show
caring in all they do
in taking and in
giving.
Understanding has to be a big part
of the father's heart
as well,
and though he feels pain
or hurts
at times he may
never, never tell.
They have a great laughter that shows in their eyes
and comes rolling
from within,
to light up the faces
of each little child
as each day draws to
an end.
Hopes for today, Dreams for tomorrow
is what they must
keep showing,
and though they grow old
they still feel great joy,
for the love of their
children keeps growing.
A Father Just Like
You
I just want you to know
you mean the world to me,
Only a heart as dear as yours
would give so unselfishly.
The many things you've done,
all the times that you were there,
helps me know deep inside
how much you really care.
Even though I might not say,
I appreciate all you do,
richly blessed is how we feel
having a father just like you.
To Any Daddy
There are little eyes upon you,
And they're watching day by day;
There are little ears that surely
Take in every word you say;
There are little hands all eager
To do everything you do.
There's a little boy who's dreaming
of the day he'll be like you!
You're that little fellow's idol,
You're the wisest of the wise.
In his little mind, about you
No suspicions e'er arise;
He believes in you devoutly,
Holds that all you say or do
He will say and do, in your way,
When he's all grown up like you.
There's a wide-eyed little fellow
Who believes you're always right;
His keen ears are always open
To catch your words, day or night.
You are setting an example,
Every day, in all you do,
For the little boy who's wanting
to grow up to be like you.
- Isabelle Tucker
What A Father Means
A Father means so many things...
A understanding heart,
A source of strength and of support
Right from the very start.
A constant readiness to help
In a kind and thoughtful way.
With encouragement and forgiveness
No matter what comes your way.
A special generosity and always affection, too
A Father means so many things
When he's a man like you...
Love Is Always There
Perhaps we'll never
understand each other.
Loving doesn't mean that we agree.
If that were so, then I would say, why bother?
But there are things I know I'll never see.
I'm sure your heart knows what I don't yet know:
The pain of loving a reluctant son;
The anger, coming fast and building slow,
Of being helpless to control someone.
You want only that I grow up right,
But you know what right is, and I still don't.
I have to learn to wield my inner light,
And if I follow yours, well, then I won't.
I'm sorry for the anger in the air;
Though we fight, my love is always there.
Dad
You have given me the
knowledge
to succeed in the
world today. You
helped me to see things
I should.
Even if it seemed I
was ignoring
them, I still saw
them. You were
always there to watch
me, even
when I wasn't
playing. Your
loving, caring and
understanding
made me what I am
today. Soon
I will move on and
put all that
knowledge to use, and
I can go
with confidence
because I had a
great teacher. Thank
you for
everything you have
done for me.
Thank you for being
the best
dad that you knew
how!
In My Eyes
He's rough and lacks
in etiquette,
Society would say.
He has no classy attributes,
To help him on his way.
He's not a fancy
dresser,
And he's not so trimmed and neat.
With simple clothes and simple shoes,
He wears upon his feet.
He doesn't belong to
a club,
Or drive a shiny car.
And when he takes vacations,
He does not go very far.
He doesn't dine on
fine cuisine,
To him fast food's a treat.
And he may use a plastic fork,
When it is time to eat.
He has a modest
little house,
But has all that he needs.
He keeps his lawn cut nice and short,
He even trims his weeds.
He works long hours
at his job,
To make an average pay.
And even if he's sick or tired,
He goes to work each day.
His job is just a
factory job,
His pay just makes ends meet.
But, a few good friends and family,
Make his life complete.
He's not well versed
in poetry,
Theater or the arts.
And wisdom is not something,
That he constantly imparts.
He loves the simple
things in life,
For riches doesn't thirst.
He knows what is important,
And his family is put first.
The wealth that God
has given him,
To treasure in his life.
A loving son and daughter,
And a very special wife.
He never has much
money,
And his life is not a show.
But he is still the richest man,
That I will ever know.
To others he's a
simple man,
And fame he's never had.
But he's the greatest man I know,
He also is my Dad.
Dad
Sometimes it's not
easy
to put things in
words.
But Dad I want you to
know,
the things that you
have taught me,
the help and
encouragement you've
always given me, is
something that
will be with me
always.
Thank you for being
the kind
of Dad I could always
count on.
And no matter where I
go or what I do,
I will never outgrow
the need
for a Dad who is as
special as you.
Always a Father,
Always a Friend
Always a Father .
someone who cares for
you and about you all
through your life,
someone whose
guidance you value,
concern you
appreciate,
love you depend upon.
Always a Friend .
someone to laugh
with,
someone you can count
on
to help you out, back
you up,
and never let you
down.
That's what a father
is -
that's what you are
to me!
