Dear Dad
As I gaze out over the morning dew, my mind begins to wander thinking of you
This shinning star that came my way here in my future and set to stay
The breezes flow by softly and gentle on my face, I'm sure a sign of my grandmother's grace
To share my gratitude respect and love, I surely know you were sent from above
Our hearts and soul and minds come to meet, how truly blessed and neet
So much in common you and I, the art the music and flowers all around, sets us up tall and sound
So much to learn from each other I know
As a father and daughters love grow
To my dad in his birthday this year July 25, 2021
I send to you all life's beauty and love, smiles and happiness, as our hearts grow so lovely and true
Oh, dad how I love you
