My dad is my guiding light,

A beacon of love that shines ever so bright.

You toil each day with a heart full of grace,

Supporting our family, creating a warm embrace.

~~~~~~

From the early morn till the setting sun,

Your unwavering spirit, it never does shun.

You rise before dawn, ready to face,

The challenges of life with unwavering grace.

~~~~~~

I remember those times, as a child in your care,

You’d lift me up high, flying through the air.

With a smile on your face and laughter so free,

You taught me to dream, you taught me to be.

~~~~~~

Your shoulders, so broad, carry burdens with ease,

You make everything seem like a breeze.

You work hard each day, with sweat on your brow,

For the ones you love, you’d do it all now.

~~~~~~

You’re a rock in the storm, a shelter so true,

Whenever we stumble, you help us push through.
