There’s a man in our house with brown hair and blue eyes.
He’s tall and good lookin’ and just the right size
For hugging and playing and all the fun stuff,
Like rough-housing a bit, until he’s had enough.
He likes to cook, but it doesn’t happen much.
His favorites are meats, like prime rib and such.
He also makes caramels around Christmas-time
His omelets are great and his crepes, so divine.
He’s a man with a passion for computer-type games
Whether online or offline, it’s all just the same.
He plays
He “escapes” from rooms faster than almost anyone.
He loves to fish. Whenever we go home
He’s out on the boat, but he’s not alone.
With other men he grunts and he shouts
And brings us home fish that we refuse to clean out.
He’s as smart as a whistle and works hard all day
Learning ‘bout eyes, and if you ask him he’ll say
That he loves optometry and optometry school,
But when graduation comes, he thinks that’ll be cool.
This man in our house is a wonderful man.
He spends time with us and we’re happy he can.
He loves his family, which makes us all glad
And makes us very proud to call him our dad.
Happy Fathers Day Brian!
