A special man has walked this earth, <br /> <br />Always giving of himself each and every day. <br /> <br />The lessons this special man has taught me <br /> <br />Is a debt I know I will never afford to repay. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Truth follows this special man throughout his daily walk, <br /> <br />Along life's winding path and with each step he takes. <br /> <br />Trials may come to slow him down, but onward he goes <br /> <br />with determination and strength as each day breaks. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Honour is this special man's middle name, <br /> <br />Not knowing the meaning of defeat when despair tries to set in. <br /> <br />Life has taken this special man through many journeys <br /> <br />Experiencing and seeing things my mind can only imagine. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Growing up under this special man's guidance <br /> <br />Is a wonderful gift I have treasured from the very start, <br /> <br />This special man, my beloved and honoured father <br /> <br />Will always have a special place in his son's heart.<br /><br />Mahfooz Ali<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-special-man-2/
