I’LL ALWAYS LOVE MY FATHER
(Father’s Day tribute, begun in a familiar tune)

I’ll always love my Father; we were his favorite girls.
I’ll always love my Father; helped bring us to this world.

A father’s love is so special; still something that’s hard to describe.
The kind of love that’s stayed with me; long after his Earthly goodbye.

Sometimes I’m quite confused, thinking of all that used to be.
How Daddy put up with fussing, just to spend time with Sis and Me.
Didn’t appreciate that Daddy survived through toil and strife,
Being a ‘Colored’ city cop; after conquering the Army life!

From him I inherited a few traits; like putting to paper, the unspoken;
Or making acronyms of license plates; and trying to repair the broken.
He loved Music and Sports like me. Neither of us were cut from early risers;
I don’t have his towering Leadership, or his quiet reserve; often the family’s tranquilizer.

I’ll always miss my Father; I thank him for his strength, laughter and Love!
And I know he’s keeping up with the Browns’ seated in an armchair, way, way up above!
