To Jerry, my Dad, on this Father's Day, Whose laughter turns clouds of gloom away. A heart of gold and a wit so sly, He makes us laugh until we cry. He's toiled through life with strength so grand, Crafted dreams with skillful hand. A golfer at heart, though his back's in repair, His spirit still dances in the open air. From campfire tales under starlit skies, To whispered wisdom that never dies, He taught me to seek the world outside, With courage and wonder as my guide. His patience, a river that calmly flows, In quiet love, his devotion grows. With Mom, a bond that's steady and sure, Together they weave a love that's pure. His lawn, a carpet of emerald green, A testament to care so keen. In his eyes, a mirror reflecting me, A legacy of heart and family. So here's to you, Dad, my guiding light, Your warmth and humor make the world bright. May this day bring joy as you’ve always shown, In the love-filled kingdom you've bravely grown.
