My Father Was no Cicero or Nero But to me he was a hero A man that stayed his marriage vow Nor missed a day his daily plough He stayed with us and did his best And never thought it was a test He loved us as much as he could And lived a life he understood He was not wise he was not sage But filled his part upon the stage He filled his life and loved his wife And shielded us from much of strife He was responsible and stayed When he worked and when he played Nor did he fill my mind with awe But I would say of solid core He was no Cicero or Nero But to me he was a hero |

In many ways, the acorn did not fall far from the tree, Sir Nut!  Your father may not have been a sage, but his son is a sagacious poet on the world stage! A beautiful rendering from your loving heart. Happy Father's Day to you, my friend! Love, EA |

Such a beautiful tribute, dear Seymour. Every Father is happy if he is loved, cherished and respected by his children and if they see in him their hero, the feeling of gratitude transforms into bliss. Love and hugs. Margherita |

I think you were blessed, by a man of integrity and heart. A gift that all children would wish to have for a lifetime. |
