Firefighter's Son

MY DAD’S A FIREMAN,
and proud am I,

Indeed for he is someone special,
whose wisdom I still need

Dad and I are buddies and,
to me, that means a lot,

A bond to last forever,
with love that forms the knot.

He took me to parades,
when other kids stayed at home.

And he taught me how to play baseball,
on a field with out a dome.

He showed me how to fix things,
even let me use his tools,

What I learned from Dad,
they don’t teach in school

The examples that he set,
I follow everyday
Placing God and Country first,
in showing me the way

Precious are those years,
now tucked away with time

Tenderly remembered:
I, as the leaf – He, as the vine
Dad hear me as I say

“I love you”, man to man,

And, I’m proud to tell the world,
MY DAD”S A FIREMAN
