Pulling Weeds
By Frogi59
Thanks dad, You woke me early, got me out of bed, and put me straight to work.Thanks dad, You planned out my day and filled it with chores, only when I was done, could I play.Thanks dad, I missed the trip up to the mountains with my friends, and I never got to do anything fun, until my chores were done.Thanks dad, It seems like my only pass-time is pulling weeds, digging holes, doing chores and never really getting paid.Thanks dad, for shaking my hand and telling me, 'good job, you do good work son.'Thanks dad, for giving me respect and trust so when my work was done, I used my time wizely.Thanks dad, far giving me character and teaching me life's lessons like dependability and reliability.Thanks dad, for being a friend and putting me to work so I learned to earn a living.Thanks dad, for everything I am is from you. I want to be like you when I grow up.Dad, you don't have to pay me for the work I have done. We'll call it even. Written October 1st, 1999 © on Oct 24 2001 11:19 AM PST 18 • 0 • 10
