I Love You
I love you, Dad, for all
the things you do.
You make me laugh when I am feeling blue.
You can untie the hardest knot of all,
Although I've tugged the lace until it's small.
You know the reason for
most everything,
Like why it rains and why bees sometime sting,
Like why the sun comes up and flowers bloom,
And why a jet creates a sonic boom.
You are the closest
friend I've ever had.
You share with me the times both good and bad.
You play those games I know you hate to play.
And plan trips for me each holiday.
I love you, Dad, for all
the things you do,
But most of all I love you, Dad, for you.
