To love my father

Aldo Gabbay 1964 (sap paulo)

Free verse
To love my father
It is very easy for me
To love my father
After all the things
My father gave
To me
He gave me my health
And I am looking
After my health
Every single day
I don't want my
Health to go down
Hill
I want to have good
health
Father I never smoked
In my life
Because I would die
Of lung cancer
Thanks God I have healthy lungs
Also I never drunk beer or
Wine
I have chosen to be
Sober for 59 years
Also before I go to sleep
Every night
I just pray for you
It only takes a couple minutes
Then I go to bed
I never wake up
In the middle of the night
I sleep all the way through
The night
