To my dad
How I wish that I could say,
'I'll go and see my dad today',
He'd welcome me with a cheery grin
His arms outstretched to pull me in
We'd sit right down to have a chat
I'd tell him this, he'd tell me that,
A rich tea biscuit and a cup of tea
He'd always see the best in me,
Whenever I would ask advice
His replies were always really nice
Look for the good in everyone
It's always there, just like the sun.
He'd make me laugh, I'd make him smile
I'd hug him hard for quite awhile,
He might recline in his favourite chair
I'd gently stroke his silver hair.
We'd go for a drive and take the dog
Then sit and chat on a wooden log
Such wisdom I have never heard
I would hang onto every word.
Forgive, don't judge, be very kind
Enrich your soul , your heart, your mind
It's a long time now since you went away
But your voice is with me every day.
