Father's Love

by

Charlie Mann 

Our childhood dreams, and sweet caress.
Our Father’s Love can not regress.

His undying devotion, and unconditional love.
He watches over us like heaven above.

We walk through life, hand in hand.
Our Father’s Love can understand.

He sees our pain, and feels our tears.
With Dad around I have no fears.

I have his nose, and his eyes.
Our Father’s Love will never lie.

He teaches us respect, and what is right.
So we too will never lose sight.

He is always there, when we’re in need.
Our Father’s love implants a seed.

That never leaves us, and never dies.
Nothing on earth can break these ties.

But there comes a time, for us to grow.
Our Father’s love in our own show.

He pats our back, and gives a grin.
To let us go is not a sin.

Our New life begins, and we’re all grown.
Our Father’s love we give to our own.

And maybe sometime, in the distant future.
We’ll have to face our own Departure.

The Things we’ll see, and places we’ll go.
Our Father’s love will never know.

But his undying devotion, and unconditional love.
Will inevitably reunite us in heaven above.
