Happy Father's Day to all Flickr dads , especially to my father

Life Lessons

 

You may have thought I didn't see,

Or that I hadn't heard,

Life lessons that you taught to me,

But I got every word.

 

Perhaps you thought I missed it all,

And that we'd grow apart,

But Dad, I picked up everything,

It's written on my heart.

 

Without you, Dad, I wouldn't be

The (woman)(man) I am today;

You built a strong foundation

No one can take away.

 

I've grown up with your values,

And I'm very glad I did;

So here's to you, dear father,

From your forever grateful kid.
