The hand hasn't come down
But it may sometime
It'll be the last straw
To keep you in line
The hand, the sting
The hurt you will feel
Will seem not normal but it's definitely real
There's only one thing that is more true
The pain is greater for me not you
Please think about these words
It is not a song
'Cause if my hand comes down
I have raised you wrong
Of these ramblings
I do not foresee
Ever the need to strike
Or put you over my knee
I have been so blessed
To have you as my boys
And we'll stay on good terms
If you pick up your toys.
Rejoice in the blessings and responsibilities of being a dad. Father's Day is but one day on the calendar but the job is 24/7. And please, don't beat your kids. Lessons can be fully learned by smearing their faces in the cat food bowl by the fridge. In front of their friends. Thanks dad.
