I hope you like them
How do I tell you father, how much I care,
How do I thank you, for all in life you've shared.
For the things that you taught me, the times you held me close,
I've thought very hard, and here's what I propose.
This special poem, I've written just for you,
Though I've written many, this one is new.
And though I think, that I'll never find,
The one true way, to say what's on my mind,
I can say for sure, on this very special day,
I love you with all my heart, Happy Fathers Day.
Happy 1st birthday, you're our bundle of joy,
Throw a party to celebrate, and play with your toy's.
You're Gods special gift, from Heaven above,
Forever and a day, you'll have all our love.
So as you grow older, and look back on this card,
You shall find, that writing it wasn't hard.
The words were quite easy, to tell you how we feel,
When you came into our lives, we got the better end of the deal.
As I walked along that cobblestone road,
I came upon this strange looking toad.
passing him by, I kept on my way,
Only to be startled, when someone yelled Hey!
I stopped and turned around, but not a soul did I find,
I then thought to wonder, if it was just in my mind.
Continuing on my journey, down that cobblestone road,
Once again, I came upon a strange looking toad.
This I found, quite curious indeed,
For this little toad seemed to be the same breed.
He hopped, then stopped, in the middle of my path,
Halt! he said, or you shall suffer my wrath.
So baffeling indeed, I couldn't understand,
A toad that could talk, let alone make a demand.
I beg a ride sir, in your pocket if you please,
For I'm a magic toad, and prolonged hopping makes me sneeze.
A magic toad. Well what's in it for me, I then thought to ask,
If for you I preform this simple task.
As we talk, he said, three wishes I'll grant to you,
My word you can believe, for it is very true.
So I accepted the deal, hoping his word he would keep,
then I woke up, and found I had been asleep.
As I stand alone, in this primitive paradise, I see such beauty that is truly spectacular. A Picture of love in an undieing frame.
I've never seen anything, that could even closely resemble, this mamouth waterfall, cascading over the cliff, falling gracefully into a crystal clear lagoon, surrounded by an army of guardian ferns and tropical flowers.
Oh what splendorous beauty there is to behold, in this untouched, unspoiled paradise of God. And how I cry as I think of what will happen, when the greedy hearts of mankind, finally trespass, into what must surely be the garden of Eden.
Alas, what dispare there is in my heart, for that day, when the serenity of this beautiful land is despoiled.
God Bless this child, you have seen fit to give,
Guide her through life, as long as she lives.
Protect her from harm, please show her the way,
And fill her life with laughter, through each and every day.
