June Bulletin

 

Father’s Day

Father should have recognition on this day, his day of days

Though he asks no fuss or favors, he deserves our words of praise

We should pause & pay him tribute as his day once more draws near

For so often we neglect him in the days throughout the year

He’s content to see his loved ones have the things they want & need

But for his own wants & fancies you will seldom hear him plead

He’s the one who seldom whimpers when things do not go his way

But today he should be honored, for today is Father’s Day
