My Dad
A man who did great things, who built homes, lives, families, people.
A man who showed me how to be, how to live life with thought for others.
A man who showed me what quiet dignity and respect looked like and what those two qualities could achieve.
A man that laughed a lot, that made others laugh in equal measure and always, always could laugh at himself.
A man who showed me that a sharp mind is more powerful than a strong arm.
A man so much greater than this prescribed end.
I was made by my Dad.
He did a good job.......and you are doing a good job for him now....sending good thoughts for all of you x
ReplyDeleteThe love you have for your dad shows in every word. This kind of writing reduces me to helpless floods of tears. You are a huge credit to your parents and I can only hope/wish/pray my son will be like you.
ReplyDeleteMuch love x
Libby - Thank you.
ReplyDeleteAG - Thank you. I just hope your son manages to swear less than I have been doing over the last few weeks.
