Dear Dad,
The one who's so crazy,
The one who has The Look,
The one who first inspired me
To fill my room with books;
The one who took my hand
To teach me how to catch dinner,
The one who reminded me
That I'll always be a winner;
The one who sang with me,
And made me forget my fears,
The one who cradled me,
And knew there was more to life than tears;
The one who created life
In a corner of dirt,
The one who nurtured my own life
In my times of deep hurt;
The one who's not skinny,
The one who's not fat,
The one who dresses like a sultan
In his onion head hat;
The one who crab-walks the room,
The one who sprung me off his knee,
The one who knew I wouldn't listen,
So he taught me to see;
The one who makes me laugh,
The one who makes me smile,
The one who one day will
Walk me down the isle,
I love you.
That's all I wanted to say.
So hold your head high—
This is your day.
