" DADA: A FATHER LIKE NO OTHER
You love to spoil but not to get us rotten in virtue
You chastise but do not break our spirits
You are so strong of character yet so compassionate
How can you be so powerful, yet so prayerful
In your trust in God and reverence we have grown in faith
Through your stern look we have walked the straight and norrow
Through your heavy voice we are been cautioned about our errors and praised for doing well
You participated fully in our daily care and upbringing as children
From giving us a bath to dressing us up
Your nuggets of wisdom through story telling and counsel have been our life's compass
You provided a shelter over our heads and invested in our education
You inspired us to learn and work hard to make it on our own, rather than wait for an inheritance
Your goal has always been to see your children do well and if possible exceed your achievements
You believe in the adage of standing on the shoulders of giants, and you are that giant
You are an old school man with a modern day swag
You enjoy the fine things of life including outings and site seeing with your family
You cook for our Mum and make her hair among other niceties
We love the way you love our Mum
Your exemplary "husbandhood" sets you apart, and
You raise the bar of fatherhood so high, that others look so bad
Your kind is rare, and so,
On this special day, I wish you everything you wish for yourself and more
Health, wealth, contentment, fulfillment, joy and peace in all forms
God )mbless wo plenty for all you have done and continue to do
Happy Fathers' Day Mr. J.B. Nkansah"-Marian Asantewah Nkansah
