" Thanks Dad "
by Violeta M. Mendoza

Thanks Dad, for teaching us to be strong,
Thanks Dad, for showing us what's right from wrong.

Thanks Dad, for giving us enough shelters,
Thanks Dad, for sharing with us our tears and laughters.

Thanks Dad, for teaching us to stand on our own,
Thanks Dad, for all the love and care you have shown.

Thanks Dad, for giving us support and inspirations,
Thanks Dad, for guiding us in our decisions.

Thanks Dad, for being responsible, kind and hardworking,
Thanks Dad, for lending us your time when we're praying.

Thanks Dad, for accepting Jesus Christ in your heart,
And thanks Dad, for hoping you'll be with us
in heaven and not depart.

What more can we ask from a great father like you,
For dear, precious daddies are very special and few,
That's why our gratefulness abounds to our Almighty God,
And again all we can say is..."thank you, thanks Dad!".
