A gentle giant you were.
Heaven’s blue eyes, and
A handsome smile.
Stories of past
Written on your face.
Poems of present in your heart.
A courageous soldier
You fought for our freedom.
A loving husband and father.
Hands of strength
And, shoulders of steel.
A protector of your kingdom.
You walked your talk
Always choosing the right road.
A true man for all to behold.
I miss you Daddy!
