My father is 82 this year and is the proud parent of 16 children and 70 grandchildren!
Love and Peace I give to him, it's what he's given me...


Poem Artwork


I have my very own Santa
who’s rosy cheeks are real
His bushy beard is white as snow
His voice so
Ho Ho Ho!

I have my very own Santa
And every where he goes
Little children smile
and jump on his lap and rattle off
all their lists, a mile!

I have my very own Santa
I get to call him Dad
and everything he gave me
Love and Peace
, especially,
It’s everything I have!

Or need...

Well my hair is getting white by the minute, but alas I hate beards. Now your father is very distinctive gentleman and you are right to be proud of him. Victor

What a delightful homage from a loving daughter to her beloved Dad! When I read this fond accolade, I as a father was warmly inspired.
Thanks for sharing your lovely thoughts and photo of your Dad with us, Kimmy.
