Father Poems for a Special Dad

Poems for Dad

Your dad is one of the most important figures in your life. The Father Poems collection from the writers at My Word Wizard helps you express just how special he is to you with poignant sentiments written just for him.

He has always been there to support and steer you in the right direction. He is your source of strength, wisdom, and a shoulder to lean on. When you went on your first date, dad was there to give you advice. And he was the one who waited up for you when you came home. All of your dates knew to treat you with the utmost respect.  Your dad engendered that kind of authority.
 
Though you haven’t always seen things through the same prism, your devotion and love for one another is beyond question.  There may have been times when the relationship was distant. But the love somehow weathered the gaps. Even during your rebellious years when you thought you knew it all, dad was always there for you, no matter how much you tried his patience.

Whether you still live at home, you are on your own, or you already have your own children, you will find something special in each of these verses. And if your dad is no longer with you, we hope they evoke some warm memories.

Let him know just how much you love and appreciate him with one of our beautiful father poems. He will really cherish the heartfelt thoughts.
