To my Daugther
- Your Daddy is a Seafarer
- By:Ramil Reyes
I could clearly remember the best moment of my life
A little angel was born wearing that magical smile
So tiny, yet you mean the world to me and your mom
And from that day on, I knew I must take the extra mile.
It hurts me to leave you, but I can’t stay too long
How I wished it’s possible I could bring you along
But you won’t like there, you’ll vomit, you’ll gonna hate the storm
I must go alone; your mom will take care of you at home.
Because youre Father is a "Seafarer"
I ask forgiveness;
This is Christmast I will not there, I asked your mom a favor
Buy you a lot of gifts, chocolates; your favorite flavor
That’s the least I could do, to put a smile on your face
I knew it’s not enough, but I couldn’t think of other ways.
My doughter, I wished I was there when you go to school
I’d fetch you after class, let’s eat ice cream, wouldn’t it be cool?
And as you proudly march on the day of your graduation
I’d walk with you, prouder, filled with jubilation.
I would like to say , For now go to school to learn something
Play with your childhood freinds
Don't worry about your "GRADES"
Being in the middle is ok
Because you have only one "Childhood" in your life
Make it memorable
I wish i know this when I am still in school
but i would like to tell to you
Education is important
But Education is not the most important thing in your
"Life"
Your "Dream " is the most important thing in your life
Identified your "Gift" and leave with your gift
Your "Gift" not your "Education"
You get your education that is nice
But if don't use your Gift
That Education don't take you so far
Coz that "Gift and Dreams" make you leaving
And not just "Exiting" in this word
Your imagination is the "preview of life "
For now, I don’t expect you to fully comprehend
When you become older you’ll know what I mean ..
Parents will do anything to provide for their children..
But i don't want you to follow me ,
See your Daddy
today "Seeking for happiness , Fighting for loneliness"
I don't Want you to become employee "modern slave"
I don't want you to play "Rat Race"
The game i played today
I want you to play your own game
Coz no matter how "High your "Salary" earning a lot of "Money"
Money can buy this things
Coz Remember "Money can buy House but "NOT A HOME
"Money can buy Clock but"NOT TIME
"Money can buy Bed but "NOT Sleep"
"Money can buy Food but "NOT APPETITE"
"Money can buy Freinds but NoT"LOVE"
