My Eulogy To The Greatest Dad Poem by MELVIN BANGGOLLAY

To all who are one with us today
Who shared their time and sympathy
Financial and spiritual help unselfishly
I convey my deepest appreciation
Along with a humble invocation
For God’s blessing to fold in a million.

And to those who joined us everyday
During the wake of my loving daddy
Who passed away and left us untimely,
I thank you all with my family’s union
For I know we can never pay the devotion
You have shared without any hesitation.

With every dropp of tears falling profusely
As I look upon your cold and tender body;
My heart bleeds with much pain and agony
For I felt the emptiness in deep oblivion
With the absence of your warm affiliation
To the clan you have cared with affection.

My father is more than a father to me
He was not just a provider of the family
But a friend willing to give all his mercy
Whose love to the clan is out of question
As to his burning desire and devotion
To keep us always united without division.

I am proud to say, he’s the greatest daddy
Willing to give all his sweat and glory
Only to give us a life flowing with honey
Even it cost his life’s end and evolution
As long as he served with strong devotion
As a prudent teacher worthy for emulation.

He had proven not only as a great daddy
But as a trusted friend of the whole family,
As a servant in the service of humanity
For in his 35 years as a teacher of the nation
He never showed any doubt or hesitation
To have been a child of the greatest profession.

One simple teaching he once told to me
Don’t ever feed your children with stupidity
Like from stealing another’s sweat and honey
In your desire to sustain all their provision
If you don’t like them to see life’s destruction
And become famous thieves of the nation.

Father, I know I have cause you lot of pain
Being sometimes stupid, naughty as you claim
But pardon be your reward to this son of mine
Who now holds the flame of your passion
Of bringing us united in one family’s union
As I am now the steward to continue your vision.

Farewell, dear father, rest in peace placidly
Like the tranquil waves of your memory
Which we will forever remember till eternity;
Thank you for all your sacrifices and conviction
Which you shared to us with much passion
And may the Lord take you in his dominion.
