Happy Father's Day Poem for a Special Step-Father

Happy Father's Day, Step Dad

Kay Balbi
When I met you, I was already a mom

You didn't hold that against me or my child

Instead you treated me like a Queen

And my baby, like a Princess

It was very easy to make you Our King

You didn't try to replace or scold

You just acted like yourself

And let life unfold

I can't thank you enough

For taking a chance on us

And our package deal

As the years go by

I sometimes think I could cry

With all the emotion

That I feel

You gave me love, and acceptance

And plenty of room to heal

You offered up patience and guidance

And sometimes nerves of steel

You are a very special man

To wed not just me but my crew

And for this Father's Day

I have this wish for you

I wish you peace, love, and joy

And eternal harmony too

And the Best Darn Father's Day

You ever had,

Because you deserve it too!
