What Should A Father Be?

Father should be the top of my little world,
the one that I look-up to.
Father should be very wise in everything,
at least wiser than me.
Father should be strong and powerful,
to protect me.
Father should be forgiving and compassionate,
especially towards me.
Father should be there when I am in trouble,
to comfort and defend me.
Father should be my bestest friend,
always willing to talk with me.
Father should be my greatest teacher,
teaching me all the mysteries of life.
Father should be real and reasonable,
in all his dealings with me.
Father should be reliable and dependable,
in all he says and does.
In other words every father should emulate,
my Heavenly Father, Yahweh.

your welcome!

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
