Fathers are wonderful people, <br />too little understood, <br />And we do not sing their praises <br />as often as we should, <br /> <br />For Father struggles daily <br />to live up to his image <br />As protector and provider <br />and hero of the scrimmage, <br /> <br />And perhaps that is the reason <br />we sometimes get the notion <br />That fathers are not subject <br />to the thing we call emotion. <br /> <br />But if you look inside Dad's heart, <br />where no one else can see, <br />You'll find he's sentimental <br />and soft as he can be. <br /> <br />Fathers are just wonderful <br />in a million different ways, <br />And they merit loving compliments <br />and accolades of praise, <br /> <br />For the only reason Dad aspires <br />to fortune and success <br />Is to make the family proud of him <br />and bring them happiness, <br /> <br />And like our heavenly Father, <br />he's a guardian and a guide, <br />Someone we can count on <br />to be always on our side.<br /><br />Ayesha Raoof<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fathers-are-wonderful-people/
