I wrote this poem for my friend Linda to give to her father so she could tell him how much she loved him; sadly he passed away before she could give him it.  If you love someone tell them now, don’t wait until it’s too late

Dad

I know I've never told you dad how much I really care

And how special you are to me just by being there

  From the first time you sat me on your knee

  Until my wedding day

  When I proudly walked with you down the isle

  And you gave the bride away

  How could I ever repay you for all the things you've done

  You’ve been my strength my guide my father all rolled into one

The many times you've listened to the many times I've cried

Throughout the good days and the bad you've been there by my side

I know I haven’t told you but it’s so very true

There isn't a day that I don't think  

I'm so grateful to have a dad Like you
