A Good Man And Good Father

I'm always proud to say I know you,

You were there growing up, and I married one too.

Like winter, spring, summer, and fall are the seasons,

We know you'll defeat each challenge with reason,

And wisely decide what the family should do.

Can the spring with its beauty, the fall painted bright,

Compare to the colors of a father's pure light.

As he clutches the hand of his daughters and sons,

And loves the woman beside him, til his journey is done.

As the sun rises early, your word is never lost,

A father provides for his family, at whatever the cost.

With a strong arm of love, at each side of his frame,

A father provides, and never looks for great fame.

Each dew drop and rain drop, and rainbow are glorious,

But nothing in nature, will be as victorious,

Just find one and watch as he loves and you'll see

A good man and good father is how God meant it to be!
