It doesn’t take Fathers Day
to remind me what I have
that makes life as sweet as it is.
I have a daughter, and every 
day I am blessed.
I have only one child and know
not the experience of raising
a son, or multiple children.
I know that I could, easily,
share my love further but, 
perhaps, am spared the 
decision on which way, or
how my attention would be 
divided. I am blessed.
Whether it is a daughter, son,
or any multiple combination
thereof, I hope you’re reminded
of the love you are a part of, and
a love that continues to grow.
