Thanks For All You’ve Done

Happy Father’s Day, Dad.
Thank you for all you have done.
If there was an award for the best father ever
Then I’m sure you would have won.
You’ve always encouraged me with my writing,
And took an interest in the crazy stories I created,
In fact, I would have never shared my writing
With the world or be an author today without you,
You’ve taught me to never give up on myself,
And you’ve shown me that any dream can come true,
You have sacrificed so much so; I could pursue my dreams.
Thank you for being my personal chauffeur.
Maybe dad stands for “dad always drives.”
You have taken me to all my doctor appointments
And wherever I needed to go without ever complaining.
Thank you for all your kindness these years,
You’ve wiped tears and snot from my face,
You’ve made me laugh when tears rolled down my cheeks,
You’ve put up with my mood swings and painful days,
Your arms are my safe place,
And your hugs are magical.
You’ve been my support,
Through good times and bad,
I feel lucky indeed
To have you as my dad!
I love you to the moon and back.
