Our Father kept a garden
a garden of the heart
He planted all the good things
that gave our lives their start.
He turned us to the sunshine
and encouraged us to dream
Fostering and nurturing
the seeds of self-esteem.
And when the winds and rain came
he protected us enough
But not too much because he knew
we would stand up strong and tough.
His constant good example
always taught us right from wrong
Markers for our pathway
that will last a lifetime long.
We are our Fathers garden
We are his legacy.
Thank you Dad we love you.
