October 15, 1923 – November 23, 1957
some miss the man
some hated the man
some dads are alive … some gone
he was my hero
he was a loser
he did so much right … and wrong
sad dad
glad dad
bad dad
rad dad
every shape, size and temperament imaginable
he never
he always
he hollered
he praised
the extremes are totally unfathomable
but NOW dad … we’re up to the plate
it’s time to swing the bat
forgive, let go, encourage, bless
love them right where they’re at
take a moment to pray
O Father, today
please lead me
in a fatherly way
