What Is A Father?

He is strength and security, laughter and fun;
A Prince to his daughter, a pal to his son.
A great story teller and mender of toys;
Who's seldom displayed by his family's noise.
He's an everyday Santa who brings home surprises.
A man to consult when a problem arises
As eager a worker as they'll ever be;
Who wants all the best for his whole family.
He's a loving instructor who struggles to teach;
His child to achieve all the goals one could reach.
And he knows in his heart that it's worth all the bother'
When he hears his child say, "That man? He's my Father!"
