Dear dad

"Up to now I have never written a poem about my father, In my opinion he is among the world’s best guitarists such as Clapton, Page, Beck, Knopfler and the like"

Dear dad
To my father
Dear dad:

Sometimes you make me sad
Sometimes you make me glad
But as I grow in life
I’ve come to know your strife

Like you I try to hide
The pain I feel inside
But when I let it go
It only helps me grow

The gifts God gave to you
Shines brightly through and through
Your grace you share with all
Not just to those that call

Tight wires are merely strings
It’s your soul that makes them ring
The voice that comes from you
Makes angels listen too

I’ll love you till the end
And always be your friend
So remember I’m always here
If you ever need my ear
