From the moment that we met Until present day You have been my rock true In every single way When I was very small Do you remember the day at the park? I do When upon looking up I saw those eyes of blue Eyes that hold such love Such tenderness, so kind Yes those eyes of blue soothed me As I let the pages of past rewind Now here I stand a woman of twenty four And those eyes of blue look back at me In those eyes I see eighteen years of love But that's not all I see I see years of hard work Giving us girls all you had I see memories tucked away on a shelf Both happy good and sad I see the strife of man Who lost his wife way too fast Who gave his soul and heart to his children To give them a future that would last Dad...there's only one thing left to say Only one more thing I want you to know Though there are many changes coming up head My love for you will continue to grow. Happy Father's Day. I love you so very much. You still are my rock, my best friend, and the greatest man I've ever had the pleasure of knowing! "A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart & can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words." |

gentle smile, Amy/Aim, what a touching, beautiful gift you just gave for Father's Day. Speaking as one, you should know that was a most precious gift, more than you will ever realize...Well done |
