A Dad's Destiny

To some "Dad" is a mere name;
others will miss out on all their children's games.
Some father's will only make promises to their child;
others will not sleep until the promises are alive and wild.
Some dads say they are too tired;
others will bring magic to a campfire.
Dads are very busy at times;
a true dad will make a child's dreams climb.
Some fathers think "parent" and "serious" are synonymous;
sadly, some dads are mere labels that are anonymous.
Yet there are a few dads that truly stand out;
these dads bring showers of hugs to their children who experience emotional droughts.
You are a member of this rare breed;
you have always taken care of your children's needs.
You have played softball with your daughter;
you have dried her tears after her soul felt slaughtered.
You have set up tents on many summer nights;
you have taught me to stand up for my rights.
You have taken me ice skating on a cold morning;
you have built me a sled during a winter of plentiful storming.
You have done a diligent job as a Dad;
you have inscribed memories in my mind that make me glad.
You have created a legacy for others dads to follow;
some would find all the effort you put forth difficult to swallow.
You have been a terrific Father to me;
I am so honored that being my Dad was your destiny!

Probably one of the best Father's Day gifts you could have ever given him. I bet you brought tears to his eyes.
