Dear dad
Thank you for explaining excavators and earthworms,
clouds and car energies, knots and navigation, maps and mushrooms.
Thank you for teaching me to do jobs neatly and accurately and to last.
Thank you for showing me the courtesy costs nothing, and a smile even less.
But that they matter more than most things.
You gave me, give me, roots - in honesty, in courage and in hope.
You make me go on believing in kindness, gentleness, concern when all the worl seems mad.
Thank you dad.
There was nowhere as safe as in your arms, nothing so comforting as your voice.
You were my protection in childhood- and now my kind companion.
Thank you for liking me as I am.
For being proud of me in even small successes and loving me in failure.
Thank you for holding me steady till I found my feet, for guiding me until I could find the way, for letting me walk on, out of sight.
For being there with unchanging Love.
You taught me how to trust.
You taught me how to Love.
Thank you.
Thank you for teaching me about friendship and kindness and concern - just by watching you.
Thank you for persuading me to be stubborn in truth,
If I know for sure it´s truth.
You have been there for me, always, loving me when I was nearly impossible to love.
Advising when I could be persuaded to listen.
Helping me, even ifI did not deserve your help.
Far away or close to me you are a part of my life.
My hopes, my achievements, my courage in adversity.
I turn to you for encouragement and for comfort -
Just as I did when I was very small.
Whereever I am, my heart turns to you.
Thank you for being you.
Just that.
The best, the dearest dad of all.
I Love you Dad
