happy birthday dad
By eleanor maslen •
i want to say happy birthday
to the world greatest dad
though not long i new you
im proud of what we had
im glad i had the chance
for you to shape my soul
and never will i forget you
as i live and i grow old
though the tears still fall
the pain has ebbed away
because i knew deep down
if you could you would have stayed
you taught us to be kind
to stand tall strong
you taught us how to cope
whent the road to life was long
a part of you still lives
because you didnt go alone
for each of us went with you
the day you left for home.
