To the Fathers

Happy Fathers’ Day
Happy Fathers’ Day to me,
My dad, and my granddad,

Happy Fathers’ Day around the world,
To the dads everywhere,
You touched many lives with one anew.

Happy Fathers’ Day to them,
Those fathers who know theirs,
And those who never could,

Happy Fathers’ Day to my dad,
May God bless his heart.
In his forever, house of dirt,

Happy Fathers’ Day to me,
All alone this day,
My little one so far from me,

Happy Fathers’ Day to Michelle,
Even though you aren’t a father,
This day, you mean so much to me.

Happy Fathers’ Day to those like me,
The scared teenagers,
With responsibility thrust upon them

Happy Fathers’ Day to all fathers,
Of all ages and all races,
Stand up and thank God for your life.
