Walk a little slower daddy

A few years ago, Kevin Kirby posted a poem about children. I copied it, put it with a photo of my little girl who was 3 months old, and gave it to my wife for Christmas. The tears flowed.

I have enclosed a poem someone sent to me; I thought that somebody might want to use it for Fathers Day;


“Walk a little slower Daddy”
said a child so small,
"I'm following in your footsteps
and I don't want to fall.
Sometimes your steps are very fast
Sometimes they're hard to see
So walk a little slower, Daddy
For you are leading me.
Someday when I'm all grown up,
You're what I want to be;
Then I will have a little child
Who'll want to follow me.
And I would want to lead just right
And know that I was true,
So walk a little slower, Daddy,
For I must follow you."


happy fathers day to all dads this weekend

For all of those Fathers on Father's Day, here is the poem that Peter mentioned.

 

Peter,

She cried because she was expecting a car!

Hope all the boys have a good day this sunday.

TUT TUT TWIRLY SO MERCENARY

i THOUGHT YOU WOULD HAVE SHARED THOSE SENTIMENTS.

My illusion of you has been irrevocably changed

regards david

 

Oh dear,

Thats me off yet another Chrimbo list I guess.

You see Dave, I am but a poor wee half orphan :boohoo:

No more daddy days for lil ole me <sniff>

~place sympathy votes here~

However, I would still love a Mini Cooper <S> Top of the range, soft top, wire wheels & leather seats.

U can be 'daddy' if u like

:empathy:

 

Dear Twirly ,

Is that the real Mini Cooper S with the 1071 cc short stroke engine from the early 1970's.

Or the BMW ?:boohoo:

Over priced glorified shopping trolley with small back seats and no where to put your handbag.

Now here in Aus we have real mens cars.:drinks

HSV Holden VE Commodore GTS

HSV Holden VE Commodore R8

Ford XR 6 Turbo
One of the fastest cars on sale in Aus and only $46,000.00 which is $15k less than a full house Cooper S.:drinks

Ford XR 8

Ford FPV turbo 6 the F6
More power than XR 6 turbo but heavier so slower.

Ford FPV V8 the GT
again more power but heavier so slower than XR 6 turbo.

Best bang for your buck car on sale in Aus today goes to the FORD XR 6 turbo.

In order to buy a performance car quicker you need to spend at least another $100,000.00

I want one.:empathy:

It was reviewed in the latest issue July 2008 of MOTOR here in aus.

go to: ford.com.au

regards David

 

Dear Twirly,

I have just read your last post again and Hmmmmm

I believe that is the best offer i have had all day even all week.

But hey i want all the privileges but none of the bills.

trouble is is that i would not want to be a passenger in a MiNi Cooper s Cabriolet.

I need a car with more Testosterone if you catch my drift. Not a limp wristed girls car.

Hang on i am becoming an Aussie Bogan .

regards David

ps yes i am bored as it is somewhat chilly here in Sydney this evening, i have my heater on full blast and i am still freezing to death. It is actually warmer outside than in my little "student" flat. Houses here are freezing.

Still a hot shower and a Boily Bot for my trotters and she,ll be right and Fair Dinkum.

 

Dearest Dave,

Alas I think you Ozzies pay a tad less for go juice than us Brits.

Currently the Shell (other rip off merchants are available {see govt.}) tanker drivers are out on strike. I'm right behind them too. Hope they get their pay deal.

Soon we'll all be on bikes instead of cars. :boohoo:

Chelsea tractors (AKA 4 x 4) will soon be the dinosaurs of the mythological past. :sinking:

Am considering putting a dom bag attachment onto the lawn mower to save fuel.

Aw well, at least it's sunny in Blighty & the houses are like toast.

As for the Mini being 'girly' it goes like stink & corners like it's on rails babe.

Leaves u boys standing.

Nope, she cried because she saw the love and sentiment behind the gesture, which I hope to have conveyed in this message, rather than the vision of capitalism which you cleary cherish.

One again, Happy Fathers Day.

 

Hello Peter,

I wish you a very happy fathers day.

I can only apologise if my attempt at humour made you uncomfortable. That was not my intention I assure you.

Many people cannot or do not celebrate fathers day for varied reasons.

My quip was a light hearted note sent in humour not commercial malice.

Again I apologise if you took offence at what I intended to be light hearted humour.

Regards,
