A Father and a Dad Are Not the Same
A father and a dad are not the same:
one can be a dad and not a father,
or one can be a father and not
bother
To earn through love the more
endearing name.
Some find fatherhood a bit to tame,
Leaving all the details to the
mother,
Or dumping the sweet burden on
another
Man with just a passing twinge of
shame.
You have been or dad so many years
That you've become the landscape that is home
The mountain that we look to from
afar.
No matter where we go we're not
alone,
For you remain within to still our
fears
And be the word that tells us who we
are.
