What is a Dad?
A dad is one of life's best gifts,
Someone to treasure all life through,
He's caring and loving,
Thoughtful and true,
Someone who is always a special part of your life,
Someone who holds a prime place in your heart,
He's a mentor, a confident and also a friend,
Someone on whose love you can depend.
A dad always has your best interests at heart,
He's someone so dear and so good,
He's a blessing, he's a gift,
He's a treasure like no other,
He's someone that is truly wonderful.
Wherever you go, and whatever you do,
A dad’s love will always see you through,
A dad is truly invaluable,
Indispensable and unforgettable.
I wouldn't want anyone but you,
And that's why I'm so grateful,
that life picked you for me.
