Father's Day

Father's Day

A Poem by Liz Alexander
"

My first poem for a while.

"
Happy Father's Day

I am not one who celebrates
Father's Day
I really do not remember the last time
That I did
Father's Day and Mother's Day are always celebrated on a Sunday
Why is that?

To the non Christian society
It could be that it truly is the only day off in their week
To call and thank their parents

But in the Christian world
Sunday is when take The Lord Supper
The meal reminding us
Of the cross
We celebrate what God has done for us
Our heavenly Father
Gave his son for his other earthly children

From Sunday when we are thanking
Our heavenly fathers
Sunday would be a day to celebrates
Our earthly fathers
To thank them for everything
They have done for us
The sacrifice they have made for us
Just like our Heavenly Father

Sundays are the days to be thankful
For everything you have been given
Question: have you wished your father happy Father's Day?
This coming from a girl
Who hasn't celebrated it in 10 years

Not because I am not thankful
But since I found no reason
I try to thank my Heavenly Father
For everything everyday

So this year I am wishing
Every father Happy Fathers day
On this Sunday

I like the reason for writing the poem. I believe the same. We need to be thankful for family and our faith. It seem some days are create to make profit. Love should be the gift we give daily to family and friends. Thank you for the amazing poetry and your thoughts.
