Fathers are wonderful people, too little understood.
And we do not sing their praises as often as we should.
A Father struggles daily to live up to "his image"
As protector and provider and "hero of the scrimmage".
Fathers are not subject to what we call emotion,
but if you look inside his heart, where no one else can see,
You'll find he's sentimental and as "soft" as he can be.
Fathers are just wonderful in a million different ways,
And they merit loving compliments and accolades of praise.
