Oh Father Dear

OH FATHER DEAR;

HEAR THEE,
HEAR THEE,
THOUGH IT IS I FATHER
THAT HOLDS YOU
 SO DEARLY
CLOSE TO MY HEART.

OH FATHER.
MY DEAR FATHER  
 WHAT AN
HONOUR
IT IS TO
 HAVE HAD
CROSS THE PATH
OF AN
ABSOLUTELY
COURAGESOUS
HUMAN BEING.

NOT AFRAID
TO CALL A SPADE
A SPADE.
HIT THE WAVES
AS THEY COME.
MANY MAY OF HAD A
MISCONCEPTION
THAT YOU'RE
A ROCK BUT FATHER,
I KNOW YOU 'RE
A TENDER LOVING HEART!!!
