"My Daddy"
  by A.Renee


Big and strong with a big heart
A bad knee and his nasty farts
But that’s my daddy and I love him

A.T. on his arm
Glasses/contact on because he can’t see far
But that’s my daddy and I love him

He walks in though the back door
Home from work
Headed straight to the bathroom, I love him

I walk in, home from school
He on the couch watching T.V. and eating food
Probably the food I left in the refrigerator, but I still love him

His cool, calm, smooth ways
The way he explained the song while the music plays
Sung all the lyrics wrong but I still love him

He was the question man, worrying his daughter
Always getting him a cup a water
It got on my nerves but I still love him

Even though he’s gone
My love for him is still strong
He was there for me, which is why I love him

It’s so hard to say goodbye to the past,
But I’ll take his memories and make them last
Because he is my daddy and I love him

The man of my life, No man above him
That’s my daddy and I’ll always love him


Love you daddy
Your daughter

SAD AND SWEET ALL AT THE SAME TIME.. A NICE PIECE FOR YOUR FATHER. MANY OF US GROW UP WITHOUT ONE AND TO HAVE HAD ONE EVEN FOR THE SHORT TIME YOU HAVE HAD HIM.. I KNOW IT WAS A JOY.

Sooo beautiful... I don't kno what its like to lose a parent, but i love that u reminised on the beauty of his life instead of the bitterness of death and made it so real...
