Perfect? Not in the truest
Nature of that word. Can
Any mortal claim perfection?
Perfect? Not by a long shot.
You get angry, mess up,
Forget notable details. Honestly:
Who can claim perfection?
Perfect? In the fatherly
Balance your passion,
Attention, and love provide
A perfect…imperfection.
Perfect? Maybe I’m sappy,
Sentimental, or overthinking
All the details; but maybe
Your imperfections perfectly fit?
Dad. That’s the word.
That’s the simple way to
Explain how such imperfections
Perfectly fit one loving man.

✨Happy Father’s Day!✨
Special shout out to my dad: I love you, Daddy!
He’s not perfect; but he’s the perfect father for me.
Is he flawed? Sure.
Is he loving? Yes.
And as a godly, faithful husband he’s set the bar really high for his children. You don’t have to be perfect to set a good example. Seriously. But you do need passion, diligence, and honesty.
To all the fathers in the present and future: you’ll mess up. Admit it. Learn from it. And leave it in the past.
To those missing a father: remember the lessons and experiences learned from them. Be a better father for the future sons.

Beautifully written. Yes, no Dad is perfect but their love for us, their children, makes up for their faults and failures. I’m blessed to still have my dad. Thank you for your words.
