Henry's Father

(Henry wrote this poem 32 years ago)

HENRY'S FATHER

I hear all the stories about loving fathers,

I like to tell you about mine.

He is a loving, patient, understanding dad,

and he is also kind.

When I was six years old, my mother became ill,

I still don't know the reason why.

But here was my dad taking care of me,

my sis and my two brothers at the same time.

He worked, he cooked, he cleaned,

he did all the things he could.

He made all of our lives

so happy, loving and good.

I am very grateful for all he had done for me.

I take this moment to say to my dad,

thanks for everything.

I wish him all the peace and love

that will come in time,

And thank my God for blessing me

with a wonderful father like mine.

TILL WE MEET AGAIN,DAD

I LOVE YOU
