Father's Day Tribute by Wenderia Newry 

A Tribute to The #1 Dad in the world

You took me in
From I was only 3 months old
And placed me in a blanket
 So I wouldn’t get cold

When I was sick
You skipped work just for me
You never left me
Because you wanted me to be healthy


 

When I first went to school

You held my hand
And picked me up
When I fell in the sand

Daddy, you were always there
Right by my side
Whether I was happy
Or just sat down and cried

When I was younger
You always called me angel
That’s my middle name
So I’m your Angel

You are very funny

You always make me giggle
I could never stay straight
Without even a little wiggle

It doesn’t matter 
What people say about you
Because to me you’re still the same
Kind and true 

Daddy I love you
Just the way you are
To me you’re my angel
My shining star
