Fathers Day Poems

Always let your Dad how much you appreciate him in your life. Thank him for all he has done for you. Don’t wait for that special occasion to let him know how special he is to you.

As our Dad’s age we come to the realization that he won’t always be with us. Never take your Father for granted. And life at times gets busy for all of us, but don’t neglect that phone call, that visit, it means a lot to him!

Our Dads gave us support and encouragement as we grew, now give back to your Dad all he gave to you.

As the saying goes, “Any man can be a Father but it takes a special man to be a Dad.” Let your Dad know how much he is loved and appreciated!
