Fathers' Day 2023

My father is gone but my husband’s around,

As well as my kids and the grands,

So we made up a plan we’d link up for the day

As the calendar kind of demands.

 

Just some time in the house to spend shooting the breeze,

Catching up with a book and some songs,

Then a trip to the playground for running around

All together, as family belongs.

 

Who needs presents or barbecue, flowers or beer

To mark what is a made-up event?

For an afternoon joined with the ones that you love

Is the way Fathers’ Day should be spent.
