Poetry From Kids For Father Day

A Poem for Dad
Though we may not shower him with praise
Nor mention his name in song,
Though sometimes it seems that we forget
The joy he spreads as he goes along,

It doesn't mean that we don't know
The wonderful role that he has had.
And away down deep in every heart
There's a place that is just for Dad.....

Admiring fathers
Look at him there in his stovepipe hat,
His high-top shoes, and his handsome collar;
Only my Daddy could look like that,
And I love my Daddy like he loves his Dollar.
- William Jay Smith

To My Father
It matters not that time has shed
His thaw less snow upon your head,
For he maintains, with wondrous art,
Perpetual summer in your heart.
- William Hamilton Hayne

The Child Is Father to the Man  
"The child is father to the man."
How can he be? The words are wild.
Suck any sense from that who can:
"The child is father to the man."

No; what the poet did write ran,
"The man is father to the child."
"The child is father to the man!"
How can he be? The words are wild.
- Gerard Manley Hopkins

Children need Daddy
Children need a Daddy
For many, many things:
Like holding them high off the ground
Where the sunlight sings!
Like being the deep music
That tells them all is right
When they awaken frantic with
The terrors of the night.

Like being the great mountain
That rises in their hearts
And shows them how they might get home
When all else falls apart.

Like giving them the love
That is their sea and air,
So diving deep or soaring high
They'll always find him there.

It's a Dad Kind of Thing

It's a dad kind of thing to protect you
And see that the world treats you right,
To offer his willing assistance
Any hour of the day or the night.

It's a dad kind of thing to stand by you
If one of your bubbles should burst,
To make sure you know you're important
And know that with him you come first.

To give you his all but still wonder
If there's something more he could do -
It's a dad kind of thing to keep showing
That he'll always be there for you.

The Little Boy Lost
"Father! Father! where are you going?
O do not walk so fast.
Speak, father, speak to your little boy,
Or else I shall be lost.

The night was dark, no father was there;
The child was wet with dew;
The mire was deep, & the child did weep,
And away the vapor flew.
- William Blake
