FATHER'S DAY #2

You can't make it up,
the love your kids have for you,
I was touched on father's day,
I don't know if other countries
celebrate the day,

As a Father I cherish it,
It means to me, that I did
my best, even the mess
of having my trials trying
to provide,

I never ran, I didn't hide
from my responsibility,
sometimes an impossibility,
but strived out of love,

above all else,
without wealth,
I found the ability,
some stability,
with calloused hands
and worn leather gloves,

even when I was intimidated,
even humiliated, I held
my head high, because
my children relied on me,

a struggle and I made it,
today I am appreciated,
and their love for me,
happily amplified.
