Daddy I Love You

Published by Family Friend Poems May 2008 with permission of the Author.

Here in my heart
my daddy will stay.
He nurtured and cared,
he held me tight when I was scared.
my best friend, my teacher in life
I saw the tears in my daddy's eyes
when I said I love you.
I meant it so deeply.
You always carried me to bed
whenever I got sleepy.
You tried to do my hair
and got it tangled every time,
but I never cared
playing the guitar, strum at a time
while I danced around you
You never once sighed
I'm your little girl and I always will be
Even when I forty I'll still sit on your knee
This day is yours, I want to say
I love you dearly! Happy Father's Day
