You are my father;
therefore, you are...
the flounder of
my philosophy.
And I want you to know
how much I appreciate the
way that you were
always there
to answer all of my
ridiculous questions,
and for putting up with
my many "bad habits."
Above all,
I want to thank you
for loving me,
even when you felt like
drowning me.
You should be commended
for your patience.

Happy Father's Day!
