    Today's your day, you should be glad.

  7. King Of A Father

    Poet: Julie Hebert, ©2011

    Today is the day that all fathers,
    Are thanked for being great!
    So I'm father, here to say,
    Let's celebrate!

    You deserve more than I can give,
    I just wish I could give you something.
    I suppose the next best thing would be,
    To treat you like a great king.

    Cause to me you come from greatness,
    Much like the kings we know.
    The difference is you're my dad,
    No king would be as great of dad as you.

    So Happy Fathers Day my Father,
    I hope your day is keen.
    Some day I hope my husband,
    Is as great of dad as thee.




  8. Tea Party Type Of Dad

    Poet: Julie Hebert, ©2011

    I don't know many dads that would give up a day with the lads,
    To sit home and play tea party with me.
    But you did something great, and made me never wait,
    How lucky I was to have a dad like thee.

    You may have felt odd, yet never appalled,
    To play with your daughter each day.
    I'd like to thank you, for being someone who,
    Puts your daughter first in every way.

    So what I must say, is something so cliche,
    But I feel I must tell you today.
    Happy fathers day to you, you'll always be my glue,
    And I love you in so many ways.




  9. I don't know many dads that would give up a day with the lads, To sit home and play tea party with me.

  10. Times I Still Cherish

    Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, ©2018

    When I was a little girl I sat upon your knee
    And you would tell me stories making me as happy as can be.
    Now I am all grown up, but memories I still cherish
    The times with you my Dad, are times I still relish.

    I always felt so safe and secure with you my Dad
    You made me happy when I was sad.
    Your big smile and your happy wink
    Always made me stop and think.

    How blessed I am to have such a Father
    I know at times I was such a bother.
    But that didn't stop you from loving me
    I could count on you that was a guarantee.

    So thank you Dad for being you
    Thank you Dad for all you do
    In my books, you're number one
    May this Father's Day be filled with fun!

  12. My Father

    Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, ©2018

    My Father the one that I could always trust
    When things were bothering me we always discussed.
    You gave me truth and wisdom too
    Never telling me that I must do.

    You taught me good decision making skills
    Some of them however could make you ill.
    But you always helped when I failed,
    You stuck with me and never bailed.

    I have learned so much from you my Dad
    Your life is an example of what makes me glad.
    I hope I will live a life like yours
    As I face challenges I will endure.

    You are my hero, I look up to you
    You are the best that is so true.
    A happy day and a great year
    Is wished for you, my Father dear.




  13. You are my hero, I look up to you you are the best that is so true.

    Dear Dad, how special you are to me
    I wouldn't trade you for anything
    You're the best Dad a girl could have
    In my life, you are such a blessing.

    Thank you Dad for always caring
    Thank you Dad for being you
    Thank you Dad for always being there
    Thank you Dad for all you do!
