Thank You Daddy

Your love is bountiful -
shyly given because
of the macho man you
supposedly are.

I see it expressed more
now that I no longer
live with you

I see it in your eyes
whenever you look at me.

You are openly proud
of my accomplishments
in a teasing way to your
friends

You stand on a soapbox
when talking about your
grandchildren.

Yes, you’re a softie when
it comes to me, and I know
that there is nothing you
won’t do for me

Thank you for your love

Thank you for the untiring
lessons you’ve taught me

Thank you for letting me see
the softness in your heart
that’s worn on your face
whenever I’m around

Thank you for the smooth
transition to adulthood and
still have that “Daddy’s girl”
look on my face whenever
you’re around

I love you, Daddy

Happy Father’s Day

Marilyn,
This is so beautiful! My grandfather was a very stern man, yet when it came to his grandchildren, he was a big teddy bear! Thank you for sharing this, and for reminding me how lucky I was to have him!:o)

Hugs,
