If your father deserves a heartfelt thank you, this short poem may contain just the right words of gratitude he needs to hear from you.
Thank you for the laughter,
For the good times that we share,
Thanks for always listening,
For trying to be fair.
Thank you for your comfort,
When things are going bad,
Thank you for the shoulder,
To cry on when I'm sad.
This poem's a reminder that
All my life through,
I'll be thanking heaven
For a special dad like you.
Happy June and Father’s Day to all our dads,

 As I look back over the years,
I begin to understand.
All my life, you have loved me,
Only as a Mother can,
 
I see the love that surrounded,
The countless sleepless nights,
The scraped knees and hurt feelings,
Your hugs and kisses magically made right.
 
Your sound advice and guidance,
When I really needed you.
And happy days spent together,
Talking and laughing as we do.
 
The many times you went without,
To build a better life for me.
Your endless love has made a difference,
In who I’ve come to be.
 
Mom, your love has come full circle,
As I now love and honor you,
You are always in my heart,
For all you are and all you do.
