Farthers are Wonderful People

I know I am a day late, but here is somthing for the farthers!
Its a poem I clipped from somthing awhile back. Written by Helen Steiner Rice.

Farthers are wonderful people
Too little understood,
And wedo not sing thier praises
As often as we should.....

For, somehow, Farther seems to be
The man who pays the bills
While mother binds up little hurts
And nurses all our illls....

And Farther struggles daily
To live up to "HIS IMAGE"
As protector and provider
And " hero of the scrimmage"...

And perhaps that is the reason
We somtimes get the notion
That Farthers are not sunject
To the thing we call emotion,

But if you look inside Dad's heart,
Where no one eles can see,
You'll find he's sentental
And as "soft" as can be...

But he's so busy every day
In the grueling race of life,
He leaves the sentimental stuff
To his parter and his wife...

But Farthers are just a WODERFUL
In a million different ways,
And they merit loving compliments
And accolade of praise.

For the only resaon Dad aspiries
To fortune and sucess
Is to make the family proad of him
And to bring them happinesss....

And like OUR HEVENLY FARTHER,
HE's a gaurdian and a guide,
Someone that we can count on
To be ALWAYS ON OUR SIDE.
