A Father’s Embrace

Roles reversed, a path renewed,
Fathers are now in motherhood’s shoes.
Guiding, nurturing, standing tall,
Love unshaken through it all.

I met a man with a heart so true,
Raising his child with care anew.
I asked him, “How do you cope each day?”
He smiled and said, “Love lights the way.”

Through sleepless nights and tender cheer,
He’s felt the joy, embraced the tears.
A privilege rare, both pain and grace,
A love unbroken, time won’t erase.

To every dad who fills this space,
With strength and warmth in love’s embrace,
Kudos to you—your hearts stand tall,
For you are fathers, yet mothers to all.
