A Father So Tall

Published by Family Friend Poems August 2006 with permission of the Author.

A father is that special someone,
Who seems so very tall
As he holds your hand in his,
When you are oh so small;

He rides you on his shoulders
And watches when you play,
And laughs when you see a bug,
Then scream and run away;

He has a twinkle in his eye
When you ask for your first date
Then gives his approving nod
And says, just don't be late.

And now after all these years,
When I think about it all,
I see it was his caring love
That made him seem so tall.
