Happy Father’s Day – By Noor Rahim

Happy Father’s Day – By Noor Rahim

My Dad is my tutor and mentor

Be it helping me on the computer

Or in my math and grammar

Regardless of day or time he’ll help me without a murmur

He finds a lot of time to help me in my leisure

Takes me out to the movies – which is such a pleasure

And plays outside in the garden until the sun is a-goner

That’s my Dad; he is such a do-gooder

My Dad is also a preacher

Teaching me the good in life & to be a believer

In sickness he gives me succour

Until I am back on my feet; feeling like a warrior

Today’s a day that you would sit & wonder

Am I getting younger or older?

But remember Dad that I’m your greatest admirer

And shall remain ever-loving now & forever

“Happy Father’s Day”
