A Stone

Drop a stone into the water-
In a moment it is gone.
But there are a hundred ripples
Circling on and on and on.

Say an unking word this moment-
In a moment it is gone
But there are a hundred ripples
Circling on and on and on.

Say a word of cheer and splendor-
In a moment it is gone
But there are a hundred ripples
Circling on and on and on....

What Makes a Dad

I thought this was so cute and very appropriate! 

What Makes A Dad

God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,

The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,

The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,

Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it ... Dad
