HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

 


I extend warm greetings to all fathers and their families on Father's Day, 20th June 2021.

I wrote a poem dedicated to my father and I wish to share it with you.

DEDICATED TO MY FATHER
A remarkable man, a national hero, an inspiration to peers.
A list of noble names for my deceased father still adheres.
To me, he was a loving father and faithful friend,
An exemplar to others who desired to follow his trend.
*
In his memoirs, you will discover his love and belief in truth.
High standards of etiquette and model writing skills since youth.
He lived a life that offered much to be emulated.
To noble parenting and family life, he was dedicated.
*
His zest "to follow knowledge like a singing star” inspired passion.
Trinidad Government sent him to the UK for higher studies in Education.
On a scholarship at the London University Institute of Education.
He graduated with a 580-page thesis and was given a promotion.
*
As District Inspector of Schools, his performance was outstanding.
Nothing for him in those primitive days was too demanding.
He attained a Doctorate in Education from a Florida University.
He was courageous and brave, not fearing adversity.
*
All his ten children excelled in various professions.
He was a father with an outstanding reputation.
I was the eighth child in that big loving family.
When I was in banking I compiled his memoirs faithfully.
*
A few years ago I published his Memoirs on Amazon.
It gained many five-star reviews and is in demand.
There are lessons to learn by reading this book.
It’s about the life of a man whom we should not overlook.
