'Why Did You Pick Your Daddy' Poem by David Bennett

'WHY DID YOU PICK YOUR DADDY'

Was it because he was an handsome man,
Was it because of his cheery smile,
Or just because he would understand when you were down a while,
Did he hold your hand when you were sad,
Did he sit you on his knee,
Was he such a thoughtful man he was always there with thee!
When you had a downside did he try and lift you up,
When you had a fall did he pick you straight back up,
When you struggled with your schoolwork, did he try to lead the way,
Did he help you out with your troubles when help seemed far away,
Well your Dad sounds like my old Dad,
The best Dad in the World,
I wish he was still here with me, that would be so cool,
Im sure your Dad is so like mine,
So cherish him while you can,
But no matter what happens he will always be your old man!
