NO DAUGHTER COULD HAVE A BETTER DAD THAN YOU If I could have
chosen the man
to be my dad,
I would have chosen a man
who put family above all else,
A man who worked hard,
yet had a gentle touch,
and an easy smile.
I would have looked for a man
who never asked others to do
what he would not,
but who set an example
with his own life and values
that others would want to follow;
a man who could admit mistakes,
find the courage to learn from them,
and keep going forward.
I would have chosen a humble man,
one who was close to nature
and respected all living things;
a man who was content with life
and found joy in the smallest things.
If I could have chosen the man to
be my dad,
I would have chosen a man
of integrity, honor, and love.
I would have chosen no one
but you, Dad, for you are all those things.
