It's
here at last, your wedding day,
You soon will be a bride.
Today you'll leave this little church
With husband by your side.
Just reminiscing, looking back,
As I stand in the pew,
The time has flown so quickly -
Where have the years gone to?
I turn to see my little girl
Come walking up the aisle,
Leaning on her father's arm,
Her face a beaming smile.
Her eyes are filled with tenderness,
And mine are filled with tears,
As I look back on childhood days,
And then to teenage years.
We've had so many lovely times,
We've shared so many things -
Thoughts, ambitions, dreams, desires,
And hopes that soared on wings.
But now I have to let you go,
My thoughts are in a whirl -
This lovely radiant woman
Is still my little girl.
I
am my father's child
I held his hand when I was young
I cried to leave
I've cried when he goes
I got his energy
and I sort of got his nose
I am my father's child
I looked up to him when I was young
I've talked countless talks
I've read his books
I received his personality
I interpret his 'looks'
I am my father's child
I hold his hand, look up to him
Though today I am no longer young
He
is like a solid tree trunk,
My shelter from the storm.
His strong hands support me,
In every way.
Shielding me from the storms,
And gales of life.
Nothing can knock this tree down,
It will only bend to love.
This tree, so mighty, majestic,
And strong,
This man so encircling.
My father is that shelter from the storm,
An unending circle of love,
That will never break
No
matter what has come about
you were always there,
As a Dad you showed me of the how,
the why, and the where
And even when I've let you down
it's me I've really failed,
The oceans of this stormy life
I've conquered and I've sailed
The courage to keep pushing on
is what I've learned from you,
And in the years to come I hope
you'll feel the same way, too.
I promise we'll be closer
and we'll do thing's never done,
And so I send this poem to you
from me....your loving son.
When
I was a baby
You would hold me in your arms
I felt the love and tenderness
Keeping me safe from harm.
I would look up into your eyes
And all the love I would see
How did I get so lucky
You were the dad chosen for me.
There is something special
About a Father's love
Seems it was sent to me
From someplace up above.
Our love is everlasting
I just wanted you to know
That you are my special hero
And wanted to tell you so.
