"A Fathers Love"

cji
6/28/99

Verse 1
********

Sometimes we have to walk
away from the those we love
to really be able in silence to talk
with another far away and above.

Verse 2
********

You see as a father I've come
with no instructions to help me
whereas there are some
who'll try to make me somehow see.

Verse 3
********

Yet it isn't the same
when you a child hold
for they are yours with a name
and sometimes you must be bold.

Verse 4
********

Thus a father's love is more
than just a thought or jest
it is burning to the core
never once a moment to rest.

Verse 5
********

Given the challenge to be
and the responsibility to know
accountability for all to see
will in your daily actions show.

Verse 6
********

Then sometimes we get lost
along the way to find a need
at almost any man made cost
to buy the correct and proper seed.

Verse 7
*******

For father's are made not grown
yet children are from the heart
and extension which is shown
if we as men will learn to do our part.
