Rare can I find a father <br />Of great statue and character <br />Man of words and honor <br />Even possess good humor <br />Often a friend to many more. <br /> <br />Man of guts and practicality <br />A respected guy in the locality <br />Law abider <br />Often a good provider <br />Never he gets angry without reason <br />Especially if one has to learn a lesson <br />Surely he'll teach anyone just soon. <br /> <br />Being my father <br />I'm proud to be his daughter <br />Like a sheep that sheepherder feeds <br />Lavishing me with my own basic needs <br />On certain condition that he always point <br />Never will I do him wrong or disappoint <br />Exerting much efforts my father do not rest <br />Simply because he wants to give me the best.<br /><br />Marvin Brato Sr<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-father-dear/
