Dear Fathers,
We celebrate you today.
For the haven you provide.
For the responsibilities you carry.
For the visible and hidden sacrifices.

For the times you soaked your pillows with tears,
The tears we never saw you shed.
For the times you felt lonely but never left us alone.
For the countless hustles and unquantifiable sweats.

For the moments of cries and laughter.
For the moments of pain and joy.
For the times you slept without food.
For the times you got us covered with the hood.
For holding the home straight even in dire straits.

For being a doting husband and caring father.
For your resilience and courage.
For holding our hands through the fiery storms.
For encouraging our hopes and dreams.

For living an exemplary life worthy of emulation.
Above all, for setting the pace and holding the ace of fatherhood.
You are forever our HERO.
We celebrate you, NOW AND ALWAYS.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!!!
