A while back on Mother's Day I wrote a poem for my mom. I saw it yesterday and realized I hadn't done one for my dad yet. Perfect timing! Here it is.
This is a poem I wrote for you.
You can read it when you're happy and sad,
Cheerful and blue.
You're funny and helpful,
Loving and smart.
You are a dad who is close to my heart.
And this is a poem where I want to say,
Have a wonderful Father's Day!
I love you, Daddy! :D

A Poem For My Dad
I am 21-year-old author, actress, daydreamer, voracious reader, introvert, klutz, fangirl, and overuser of tape. I love the impossible (which might explain my obsessions with YA novels) but I dip into the real world . . . occasionally. I’m a big fan of dogs, Broadway musicals, and bittersweet endings. When I'm not hunched over a laptop writing a new story, you can find me onstage in whatever theatrical production I've allowed to take over my life. I am a contributor to the “Fauxpocalypse” anthology and the author of “Instructions for Flight” and “Ghost Light,” both collections of poetry. You can follow me on Twitter and Instagram at @KateIFoley.

That is so sweet! I think your poems are great gifts. :)
Thanks for the poem! It's the perfect gift. I love you, too!
sweet and beautiful poem.:-)
That is so nice! And I agree, that was perfect timing! :)
I saw your post on "Positive Writing" and I just had to stop by and tell you how awesome it is that you're a writer and that you're blogging about your journey! I started writing when I was in the sixth grade (a long time ago!) and if the Internet had been around then, I know for sure that I would have had a blog, too! My daughter is also 13 and she loves to write. I will have her check out your blog.
Keep on writing and dreaming!
Thanks, everyone! :D
Thanks for stopping by, Melissa! :D Does your daughter have a blog, too?
She used to have a blog, but she hasn't posted on it lately. But maybe I will encourage her to get back to it. =)
Hey! Im homeschooled too!! yay! Love your blog!

@Eileen Thanks! :D I'll check out your blog right now!
This is so late but I had to stop and tell you that one of my favorite things about being a dad to daughters is to have your daughters get older and still call you daddy.
Sweet poem.
@Jimmy Thanks. :) I still call my dad Daddy and I'm not sure I'd ever want to switch!
