Forever My Dad Poem by Abraham Lawrence

A few seconds of recognition,
A few seconds of appreciation,
A few seconds of love,
That's what he meant to you,
That's how much the world views him.

He is so much more than a few seconds,
He is everything to me.
He's presence doesn't more to me than strangers can offer.

He was kind,
In the gentle way he smiled
And the warmth of his embrace.

He was smart,
In the wisdom of his words
And the guidance he provided.

He was generous,
In the selflessness of his actions
And the generosity of his spirit.

He was lovely,
In the tenderness of his touch
And the depth of his affection.

He was beautiful,
In the light of his laughter
And the strength of his character.

He was my dad,
A pillar of strength,
A source of love,
A beacon of light.

His presence lingers in every cherished memory,
In the echoes of his laughter,
In the lessons he imparted,
In the love he shared.

Though he may be gone,
His spirit lives on
In the kindness we show,
In the love we share,
In the memories we hold dear.

Forever in my heart,
Forever my dad.
