Stepdad Father's Day

Stepfather Poetry ~ Happy Father’s Day Stepdad

Happy Father’s Day Stepdad 

 

The first time mom brought you home

We thought maybe she had lost her mind

How could she want to replace our dad

with this stranger in such a short time?

 

We didn’t care that you were kind to us

Or even if you helped to pay the bills

We only cared about ourselves

And so our empty hearts went unfilled.

 

The more we rebelled each and every day

You gave us the love we so desperately needed

And the more you went out of your way

You broke down the case we so valiantly pleaded

Father's Day 

We were so young and stubborn then

But now that we’re older and grown

We’re sorry for all of the trouble we caused

There are so many things we should’ve known

 

Thank you for being there for our family, step-dad

It’s too late to go back; we must move ahead.

Thank you for having that dad  kind of patience

We gave you our worst but you chose to love us instead.

 

Happy Father’s Day!

I was born in America's heartland, Nebraska. I started this website out of desire to make a positive difference in the lives of stepfathers and their families. In 1995, I married my ex-wife and became a stepfather to her two children then 10 and 14. I have a biological son, Nathaniel and live in Silicon Valley, California.
