A Fathers Wisdom Poem by Scott Salmon

A father's voice directs you,
It soothes you and it's kind,
Your trusted voice of reason,
To cultivate your mind,

Close your eyes and hear him,
He whispers in your ear,
That gives you all the confidence
To chase off any fear,

Remember all he's taught you,
It's easy if you try,
If no longer with us,
His wisdom will not die,

To loose your dad is tragic,
He didnt want to part,
So always keep his wisdom,
Alive within your heart,

The world is some how new to you,
You have to carry on,
He lives on in your memories,
You praise him every dawn,

So as you wake each morning,
Think of what he'd say,
Remember how he loved you,
And live your life that way,

He'll always be here with you,
His thoughts within your heart,
Praise him in your memory,
And you'll never be apart.
