Father

dedicated to him

Dad and Me cheering on my son's football game

A word of strength

A word of pride

A word meaning honor

A word meaning to have tried

A word that can seem so unfair

When the rules feel unjust

But a word first to your defense

When you have earned back your trust

A word that means respect and to always walk tall

A word able to boost self-esteem

After each time you fall

A word meaning to be unique

And truly rare

Forever patting you on the back

Just to show you he cares

(Written for my step-father, Patrick Supola in 1995 for Father's Day from me)
