To My Dear Father

Through troubles time you guided me,
You gave me understanding and your love,
Your patience true, through all I did,
Was like a gift sent from above,
Never once in each hurdle did you give up,
Although so many mistakes I made,
I drained you, hurt you, so many times,
Yet every fall you still forgave,
You are my rock, my supporter true,
In me you did believe,
I know I caused you so much pain,
And your heart I did deceive,
But you have been an angel true
My saviour and my guide,
I wish you father all my love,
For in you I can confide,
You are so much, my teacher in life,
I look up to you in so many ways,
I will try in life to make you always proud,
And you will be my guru for all of my days.

Lots and lots of love
Your loving daughter
Anita
