Poem for my Dad

Life Lessons

You may have thought I didn't see,

Or that I hadn't heard,

Life lessons that you taught to me,

But I got every word.

Perhaps you thought I missed it all,

And that we'd grow apart,

But Dad, I picked up everything,

It's written on my heart.

Without you, Dad, I wouldn't be

The man that I am today;

You built a strong foundation,

a one that no one can take away.

I've grown up with your values,

And I'm very glad for that;

So I will be here for you every day,

like you have been to me,

say thanks will never be enough,

to pay what you´ve done for me.

I love you and, always I´ll be your son
