Fathers Poems
Fathers Are Wonderful People
by Helen Steiner Rice
Fathers are wonderful people
Too little understood,
And we do not sing their praises
As often as we should...
For, somehow, Father seems to be
The man who pays the bills,
While Mother binds up little hurts
And nurses all our ills...

Good dad persona
by Marra Makinen
You'll probably never see this
Never read this
You probably don't even know
That I'm a writer
You were proud of me
For as long as it was convenient
You supported me
For as long as it supported your good dad persona

by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
I’m never alone
when you’re in my thoughts...
You help me decide
between my shoulds and my oughts...
I’m never scared
when you hold my hand...
You’re always with me
when we walk the land...

Months of Saturn
by Hope Norton
Be a father to me
place a hand on my head
keep me rooted, my mind
Oh father, why won’t you let me levitate?
I understand that you are distant
for me to grow above you
but please, that searing shield you carry,
put it down.
Embrace me warmly

Happy Father’s Day!
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
No dad is ever perfect...
Not by any means...
Some dads are super cool...
Some dads make us eat our greens...
Some dads work all the time
And don’t get home until late at night...
Some dads have to work two jobs
And don’t get home until morning light...
