Today is father’s day
A day to celebrate fathers
To remember the bike pedals scraping along the local park gravels
To be thankful for the endless slabs of meat on the table
I gotta reach into the pocket of my heart
As far as I’m able
To pick out the memories that made me giggle
The ones that made the backs of my eyelids tingle
When mommy didn’t want to stay up
Not even for a little
In my world
You’re in the middle
Standing guard
Keeping tabs on my every wiggle
Today is father’s day
A day to celebrate fathers
I celebrate you
I appreciate you
And when I look into the eyes of my son I thank you
Happy Father’s day
To my father and all the father’s out there.
It doesn’t take much to bring them here but it sure takes a lot to raise them right.
Cheers,
