A Father's Love
Fathers seldom
say "I love you"
Though the
feelings always
there,
But somehow
those three
little words
Are the hardest
ones to share.
And fathers say
"I love you"
In ways that
words can't
match-
With tender
bedtime stories-
Or a friendly
game of catch!
You can see the
words "I love
you"
In a father's
boyish eyes
When he runs
home all
excited,
With a poorly
wrapped
surprise.
A father says "I
love you"
With his strong
helping hands -
With a smile
when you're in
trouble
With the way he
understands.
He says "I love
you" haltingly,
With awkward
tenderness -
(It's hard to
help a
four-year-old
into a party
dress!)
He speaks his
love unselfishly
By giving all he
can
To make some
secret dream
come true,
Or follow
through a plan.
A father's
seldom-spoken
love
Sounds clearly
through the
years -
Sometimes in
peals of
laughter,
Sometimes
through happy
tears.
Perhaps they
have to speak
their love
In a fashion all
their own.
Because the love
that fathers
feel
is too big for
words alone!
