Some Words Of Thanks To My Father Who Cared Poem by Miriam Mababaya

Some words of thanks to my father who cared,
Who also cared for me and my brothers:
Thank you for all those food you loved to share,
And for loving us, as did our mother.

Thank you for the money you used to pay
For our lunch at school, which you earned from work.
Thank you for driving me to school on those days,
And for helping me out with my homework.

Thank you, father, for proving that you cared,
For trying to fulfill our wants and needs –
When I was ill for trying to be there,
For the advice you wanted me to heed.

Thank you for loving, mother and father;
I pray that in Heaven we’ll meet each other.
