The Wasted Man
You Are Your Children's Mentor
A Dad, You Never Knew
A Man, Whose Breath Was Filled
With Smoke
Though ,Spoken Words
Were Few
The Pungent Smell Of Alcohol,
Reeked Right Through His Skin
He Caused Much Shame, Destroyed
His Surname
The Gutter Was Where He Did End
But, There Was The Little Boy
Trembling In His Shadow
With Lifeless Eyes, A Wounded Soul
How Did His Life End?
I believe that people get discouraged when they feel unloved or uncared for by a parent. Always remember that your children are always watching you, learning from you....following you....So, this Fathers Day, and everyday, give your children something to live by...you !
www.biblegateway.com Ephesians 6:4 (King James Version)
And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up
in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
