Dad
A father’s love is a guiding light,
A beacon shining in the darkest night.
He teaches me to be strong and wise,
And helps me see the world through loving eyes.
Though life can be hard, he’s always there,
A steady hand to show me he cares.
When I stumble, he lifts me up.
And helps me find my way, never giving up.
His humour and love is a precious gift,
A treasure that I will always uplift.
