Family
Fathers
Everyone either had a father or is a father;
We find old fathers, young fathers
Wise fathers (love is a choice, not a feeling)
Foolish fathers, fathers away from home
In service fathers, divorced fathers,
Fathers who can overlook and forgive,
Fathers who can't ~
Fathers who are held back by courts (unjustly),
Fathers who had bad fathers,
Fathers who had their arm linked with their wise father,
Fathers who love, stand by, cheer,
And hold on when things are rough ~
Fathers on earth, fathers gone on.
Mostly we realize You, Father,
And thank You for always being there;
Never being too sick, busy, or involved with games.
You never go away.
If anyone doesn't have a father,
You'll be that for them.
You never turn out the lights of home.
Thank You, our Father, Who art in Heaven.
