Poems for Dad

“A Father’s Love”

A father’s love is a guiding light,

A beacon in the darkest night.

His strength and wisdom, a source of pride,

In his embrace, we find solace and abide.

Though he’s gone, his love remains,

In our hearts, it forever sustains.

His legacy of love, we’ll always uphold,

In our memories, his stories are retold.

“Dad’s Hands”

Dad’s hands were strong, yet gentle and kind,

They worked tirelessly, a labor of love defined.

In every touch, his love was felt,

In every gesture, his care was dealt.

Though his hands now rest, their work is done,

In our hearts, his love forever spun.

His hands, a symbol of his love so true,

In our hearts, he’ll always be with us, too.

“My Father, My Hero”

In my father, I found a hero so true,

In his footsteps, I longed to pursue.

His wisdom and strength, a guiding light,

In his love, I found my might.

Though he’s no longer by my side,

In my heart, his love will forever abide.

His legacy of love, I’ll carry on,

In his honor, my journey I’ll do.

His words of wisdom, a guiding light.

His stories of old, a treasure trove,

His legacy of wisdom, we’ll always cherish,

In our lives, his teachings we’ll nourish.

“A Grandfather’s Love”

A grandfather’s love is like no other,

A bond that lasts, a love to smother.

In our hearts, his love is near.

His legacy of love, we’ll always treasure,

In our memories, his love will never measure.

His hands, a symbol of his love so true,

In our hearts, he’ll always be with us, too.
