What can you say to someone
who has always been one of
the most essential parts of your world;
someone who took you by the hand
when you were little
and helped to show the way?
What do you say to someone
who stood by to help you grow,
providing love, strength, and support
so you could become the person
you are today?
What can you say to let him know
that he's the best there is,
and that you hope you've inherited
some of his wisdom and his strength?
What words would you say
if you ever got the chance?
Maybe you just say
"I love you, Dad..."
and hope he understands.
