Oh Jac you've just reminded me
Father's Day I just forget
Cos Dad's not here....no card to make
No little gift to get.

Well, when I say he's not here
He never went away
He's sitting here beside me
Every single day

He watches every move I make
When I'm puzzled.........he knows
As I struggle for the answers
On a 'pop quiz' radio show.

When I don't know what words to rhyme
For every little verse
He leaves it for me to work out
(I admit sometime I curse )

But it's only right, I have to do things
My way and not his
From the silly to the serious
Like the radio 'pop quiz'

If things go wrong, it's up to me
To try and put them right
So 'Thankyou Dad' I know you're there
With me...........just out of sight

(AKA Mary)

How beautiful it is to do nothing and rest afterwards...
