Father's

Poem Artwork

 

When father's are good, they are
the backbone of societies

No matter how far we swing towards
genderless, men and woman are different

The roles are more blurred than ever, but
father's  still think like men,and they should

My father was kind gentle,always smiling
but we knew he was the man in the family

My mother would punish us,though
stern,she was good, kind,and all woman

We need father's who will take charge in
matters they do best with

And mothers who will back them up, when
they are being men

We need to honor father's and give them
the love and respect they deserve


Happy Father's Day!

Eileen,
My Dad passed away, two days ago, a week after Father's Day, from an evolving heart attack, which they think began on Father's Day, itself. We were extremely close and the last two days have been extremely hard. I enjoyed your tribute; it reminded me of my Dad.

Thanks,
Jill

We were lucky, I think, we had one "at hand" we can look back on and praise. Not so with so many in this world. Orphans or near-orphans they are. Cheers

I thank you for your poem. - gene

You've captured the essence of what Father's Day is all about. So we should remember our Dads with pride, both living, and who have left the earth.

If most dads are like me, they walk around talking like Rodney Dangerfield most of the time; but thankfully fathers day isn't one of those times.

Happy Fatherīs Day to you dear Eileen. As a father far away from wife and children I feel the vaccum my absense is creating in my family, that hole of loneliness dug inside my heart. Please pray that they unite me one day in Sweden.

Indeed we do - my Daddy (NUTZ missed the fly) commanded respect - not because he was mean - far from it - but you knew when not to push him - he wouldn't cotton to you disrespecting others, ESPECIALLY Mom - I miss him. A beautiful tribute to Daddies, everywhere - thank you, well done, Eileen -

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
