Lessons Learned From a Father
- written by Kurt J.
Why don't we take the time
To count the lessons learned from our Father?
Put in writing the faith, wisdom, and values
Given to us unselfishly
Do I even realize all that he has given?
All that was sacrificed and shared
For my benefit?
What is the best way to say thank you
For a lifetime of gifts
That did not come with ribbons and bows
All went to the clay
That shaped who I have become
His loving hands sculpting my core
Guiding me with love and truth
Then letting me stand on my own
Maybe if I face each day
Going forward with respect and integrity
Accepting my failures
- written by Kurt J.
And taking responsibility for my actions
If I never gloat at my victories
Nor let them go to my head
If I am humble and kind
Taking care to share with my children
What was given to me
Or maybe I just say
Thank you, Dad
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Chris & Dan
