Dada Poem by Justine Almenario
Dada
To surmise in the existence of heroes,
some might sneer, myth woes.
Pish! As yet, they haven't met my Dad,
my indebtedness is ineffable, he's in Riyadh.
Torment is an understatement each time he's about to leave.
But that, he will cope so we may live.
Behind every great child is a truly amazing Father.
Seems obscure to come across the precise word,
to put on view how exultant I am to be his daughter.
He had crossed bridges none dared to go.
Trounced tons of battles life had to throw.
Then again, this Dad we have fears no evil.
Tangled complex occurrences he always can ravel.
For burning himself to bestow us light,
in a caliginous journey to a future that's bright.
His solitary quest for fortune overseas,
triggers the sadness one cannot merely cease.
Dearest father do us a favor,
be unassailable and out of harm's way in your chosen endeavor
In due season, to home you will return.
Only then, shall the most splendiferous smile be reborn.
To a future that's bright..... congrats on being chosen.... a big 10+++++++++
a poets true feelings for a wonderful dad written with as much love as they have? ...........well penned.
Great tribute to a loving father for everything he means and does for the welfare of his child. Behind every great child is a truly amazing Father. He had crossed bridges none dared to go. Trounced tons of battles life had to throw.
I can't thank you enough for recognizing my work. My Dad is an Overseas Filipino Worker.
I like your poem very much. Your jaunty tone is just pitch-perfect: it pulls us into the poem by its charming rhythms, and before we realize it we are learning things about the man which make us share your admiration. But (this is is really important in a praise-poem!) you don't push us into admiring him, you don't overstate your emotional connection, you don't get sentimental and make us feel, Gosh, do we have to like him? No, you lead us through anecdotes to see him through your eyes and we willingly follow you, because your language is persuasive. What this really means is that you are telling the truth about your father and I feel your sincerity in every line. Your father deserves not only your praise but your honesty. And this praise and honesty make me think fondly of my own beloved father. This is a shining example of a Poem for the Day! ! !
Congratulations... this poem is valuable and enjoyable both.. But how is its form Rhyme Royal? ..... I think anyone will help me including the very poet.
