Most Fathers

Most fathers recall when their children are born
that instant bond that could never be torn.

Most fathers watch as their children grow
and develop a pride no other would know.

Most fathers give advice and gently guide,
helping their kids to take things in stride.

Most fathers earn the title of dad,
by cherishing small things, even the bad.

Most fathers strive to do their best,
thinking how much they have been blessed.

Most fathers do drink, but not to excess,
Most fathers are different from you, I guess.
