F ather must be a farmer, his family

the fertile field; sowing seeds of

instruction, each year fine crops

to yield.

A crobat of amazing agility, choosing

early his priority; balancing that

swaying tightrope, 'tween job

and his family.

T eacher with infinite patience, leader,

encourager, guide; unashamed~~

never embarrassed, to show his

tender side.

H onorable judge~~~discerning juror,

with wisdom his cherish'd friend;

when hard decisions arise, knowing

how and when to bend.

E arnest and eager guardian, angel

with accurate sight; watching over

his precious charges, keeping vigil

both day and night.

R esourceful, relentless warrior,

planning each enemy's defeat;

protecting his troops at any cost,

NO SURRENDER~~~NO RETREAT !

S uch a man who accomplishes all

this, is well deserving of; deep

respect, devotion, admiration, And ~

most importantly ~ OUR LOVE !
