A Working Father : Inspirational Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


  

God have mercy on Fathers

who at times can't be there .

 

They don't get recognition ,

sometimes its so unfair .

 

Let me tell you why a father is so tired ,

You see ,

 

A father brings in the bacon

for the family .

 

He works seven days a week

and if that's not enough ,

 

He apologizes for not being

there as much .


then because he puts in

such a big effort each week ,

 

He's so exhausted at times

that he can hardly speak.

 

He is judged by the cover

of a book never read ,

 

Father in heaven help him

to make his daily bread .
