When I think of you Dad
I remember the times
When life was simple
Like my nursery rhymes.

The cut on my finger
The bruised or skinned knee
How a kiss from you
Made it all better for me.

Through my trials you listened
And in my triumphs you cheered.
You encouraged me
You allayed my fears.

Your guidance I treasure
Your humor and wit
Are part of my childhood
I'll never forget.

My dad and my hero
You will always be
I'll thank you forever
For your love to me!
