daddy
Any man can father a child For it takes but a short while But to be a daddy takes much more Especially to love a child that’s not yours A child that here without a notion Of what has happened and why’s there commotion A child that’s here not from your seed But yet and still you took no heed To raise me up as one of your own Making your heart my place of home Now there were times I wanted to know Why the biological never showed But I got much love and that’d be all I’d need Because the actions you took made me your seed For you stepped in and took control Unlike him you were bold For he stepped in and right back out In my mind leaving wonder and doubt Why would someone show no tact? For an innocent child felt the impact But true love I have never lacked Now the time for proclamation I find myself in a similar situation It hurt me much the way he came But none-the-less I’ll love him the same I hope to be at least half of you To love that child and render him due All that I’ve truly been given For he is a precious gift from heaven Eligha Thompson before I go There is something you must know You are my daddy and I’ll always love you so Copyright2008 by Kenneth J Thompson
