My Dad

A poem written for my dad, Mr. Calvin C. Jones Sr. but dedicated to all dads everywhere!
Father, you were always there,
You always showed me how much you care.
You were the bread winner of the family,
Now, I know how men should be.

You always tucked me in my bed,
And kept a roof over my head.
I remember well our family trips,
And how you bought me double dips.

You were always firm, but not too bold,
You made our house warm, not cold.
I love you more than words can say,
In my heart you will forever stay.
