Things may have changed in recent times
Evolved into a new
But I see past the ageing parts
To the twinkle deep in you
To the heart within that beats with care
And love that you have shared
The kindness deep within that you
Have shown, is always there
The stable unconditional
Hug that’s enveloped me
Through life – through good and bad you’ve been
A star Dad constantly
A star that’s shone a leading light
With a glow that lasts each day
Unceasingly encouraging me
Giving guidance on the way
And too you’ve been a role model to
Your grandchildren as well
A beacon in their lives that too
Shines out in ways that tell
And so dear Dad and Grandpa too
Be sure we love you so
For with heartfelt thanks and gratitude
You’re the best Dad that we each know!

A lovely picture and words to match. G:(
Thank you. It’s an old pic now but one I am particularly fond of 🙂
Just trying to find a picture of my dad (gone 12 years). Take care. G:)
Of course, the best pics are always those in our mind’s eye and the happy memories they muster. x
True. We always carry many pictures in our heads and hearts. X
