What Makes a
Dad?
God took the strength of
a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The
calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of
nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The
power of the eagle's flight,
The joy of a morning in
spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The
depth of a family need,
Then God combined these
qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was
complete,
And so,
He called it ...
