I wrote this poem for Daddy on Fathers'Day. I had fond memories with Daddy
when he has still around. And i can't forget all the advices he gave me and
all the comforting words he gave me when I'm feeling down and out. It maybe late
composing this poem for him, but for sure, his memory will linger in my thoughts
and in my heart forever. Why don't we spend some bonding moments while we still
can? and treasure those rare moments the best we can with our fathers.
DAD, YOU'RE MY NUMBER ONE!
I have said this to you, and I'll say it again
I'm sorry to have caused you heartaches
And I took all the blame.
I had misconducts in the past
And made some wrong decisions in my life
But still you were there and accepted my apologies
And again, you enfold me in your loving arms.
In my moments of solitude
I can feel your warm and soft hands
Holding mine and try to reassure me
That everything will just turn out right.
I know I failed you a lot of times
And being disobedient to your words of advice
But you never turn your back and left my side, Dad
Through the good times and in bad.
Before you closed your eyes
You prayed I will have a family of my own
Sorry Dad, for it didn't happen
Until now, I'm living by myself all alone.
You told me to settle down
With someone that I truly love
And most of all,never to forget
Put God always at the center of your lives.
Thank you so much Dad
For all those gospel words
By trying to put sense in my head
Every time the going gets rough.
Rest assured your thoughts are remembered
I am your daughter who loved you dearly
And I'm still missing you a lot, Dad
Even to this very day.
I missed you Dad, since the day you leftr
Your best wishes for me
They're still in my heart and in my head
And because of these,I owe you my life
I will be grateful forever
to be your daughter
And for having you, and being MY NUMBER ONE, DAD!

How did my poem affect you? Did you find it fitting for our
fathers to be treated with utmost care? Did you experience the same as
mine - and that is being disobedient to their advices? If our fathers will
never around to guide us and protect us from any hard, what do you think
life would be like?

Hi luz! Welcome to myLot!
I'm sorry about your father.. You made a really touching poem up there! People said that a good poem comes from the heart. Yours do. The words are chosen perfectly to express your gratefulness. My father might not b as perfect as yours but hes does have some quality and positiveness towards his daughters. I hope that your life would turn out best just like he said. :)

Hello Lady. I love your poem it really touched my heart. My dad passed away when I was pretty young and I miss him. I know he is in heaven with God it says it in the bible 2nd Corinthians 5:7-8 so I am at peace with that. But my dad was great while he was here. Thanks for the poem and giving me back some memories. Be happy have a great day!
