A father’s love is pure
His love is true.
He holds her tight
With all his might, when the tears come in the night.
His law is overlooked
She is falling out of place.
The burdens are great
She is growing up.
Becoming a young lady
Hanging around with guys that are shady!
Still his love is unchanged
Loving her more each and every day.
She will stumble and fall
Yet his love remains unchained.
He sits and watches
Her make, her mistakes.
Like the sun in the sky
Protecting the earth below, it is he who watches over her.
The rules are strict, may seem unfair
It is for her own good he has been there before.
He holds her tight
With a warm embrace.
Letting her know
Everything
Will be alright.

The love of a father

A father’s love is pure
His love is true.
He holds her tight
With all his might, when the tears come in the night.
His law is overlooked
She is falling out of place.
The burdens are great
She is growing up.
Becoming a young lady
Hanging around with guys that are shady!
Still his love is unchanged
Loving her more each and every day.
She will stumble and fall
Yet his love remains unchained.
He sits and watches
Her make, her mistakes.
Like the sun in the sky
Protecting the earth below, it is he who watches over her.
The rules are strict, may seem unfair
It is for her own good he has been there before.
He holds her tight
With a warm embrace.
Letting her know
Everything
Will be alright.

I'm telling ya now that protectiveness only gets stronger as they grow.
That's probably why we have grand kids.
So we can still obsess and ease off ~ Just switching our focus.
That's my deep thought for the day...lol

By the way, your poem was great.
