Time Treasured : Inspirational Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

I respected my Dad for who he was .

Things were much different back then because ,

Of the ideals in life that we lived by  .

 

 

I was never embarrassed of my dad .

I was proud to be with him as a lad .

He had something that you couldn't deny .

 

 

I was encouraged by what my Dad said .

His words were few but what wisdom they weighed.

The virtues he strived for I'll also try .    

 

I  never challenged his authority .

I guarded his pride and his dignity  .

And treasured what I was influenced by .
