What Does It Mean to Be a Father?
Love, Make, Create, Care,
A father’s words should not scare.
But cry as you may do,
Because what does a father mean to you.
What does it mean to be a father?
An unknown answer may be a bother.
But everyday a man becomes a dad,
But it is up to that dad to be what he never had.
Protect their child filled of hope and possibilities,
Endless love should not be a responsibility.
But what is love without action,
Four letters make a sound, but no reaction.
Love, Make, Create, Care,
A father’s words should not scare.
But cry as you may do,
Because what does a father mean to you.
What does it mean to be a father?
Endless devotion to making a smile go farther.
Creating tears of laughter, not of despair,
A peace can not be reached in disrepair.
A crack, a break, a fragile frame,
Be a man to your young dame.
Accept the fault in your anger,
Do not allow yourself to become a stranger.
Love, Make, Create, Care,
A father’s words should not scare.
But cry as you may do,
Because what does a father mean to you.
