There are heros called firefighters
and there are men we call fathers
and I have been blessed with a man with both roles.
Each day whether it be morn or night
my father will leave for work
killing fires and saving lives
putting his life on the line
his daily act of bravery
a hero
my hero.
Each day or night while not at work
duty still calls for him
the job of raising a family
which is lovingly rendered
hugs and kisses abound us
and tears are wiped when needed
love is felt every moment
by a man
my father.
I am proud to be the young girl
that this man
my father
this man
my hero
calls his daughter.
