I’m sharing with you my Father’s Day poem to my dad. Feel free to edit it and use it as a gift for your own Father, or order your own personal poem this Father’s Day.
With such fond memories of childhood
It’s hard to know where to start
but for each and every happy one
You certainly have been a part…
From the time when I was a little girl
and danced on top of your shoes
to the times when I was growing up
and you made me less confused
Like when we were skiing together
and a teenage boy on the chairlift was bold
he had the nerve to put his arm around me
even after I told him I was ten years old!
I threatened his life and told his friends
and complained to you all the way home
You listened calmly, an occasional chuckle
and then you made your feelings known
You reached your hand accross to me
and said, “Don’t you worry Jay,”
“Just do the same with all the boys
and you’ll be better than okay.”
Your advice to me so honest and true
and never was it prolific
from “Don’t lose your independence”
to “I think that Jim is TERRIFIC!”
Thanks not only for being there
but also for being my friend
for sharing with me your leisure time
not the usual father/daughter trend
You’re so much more than a “good father”
going far beyond what is obligatory
You participate in our lives
and truly enjoy our company
And I get to relive my memories
of growing up all over again
as I share with you in love and joy
as you spend time with your grandchildren
