YOU TAUGHT ME DAD TO...
"WITH THANKS"

THANK YOU DAD FOR TEACHING ME,
HOW TO BE A WORKER BEE.
CHECK THE OIL AND GAS BEFORE,
START IT UP, LOOK ON THE FLOOR.
PLAN THE WORK YOU SAFELY DO,
STAY UNTIL THE WORK IS THRU.
DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME ROUND,
IF MISTAKES ARE MADE, YOU STAND YOUR GROUND.
FIX IT, DO IT, PROUDLY DONE,
YOU'D THINK I WAS A MANLY SON.
I AM BUT A DADDY'S GIRL,
WITH DIRT, AND SWEAT, AND PRETTY CURLS,
WHEN I THINK OF ALL I'VE DONE,
I THANK YOU DAD I'M NOT YOUR SON.
THOUGH A TOMBOY I MAY BE,
A THOUSAND THINGS YOU HAVE TAUGHT ME.
FOR WHEN I DRESS, I DO IMPRESS,
A WOMAN I'VE GROWN UP TO BE!

LOVE YOUR DAUGHTER! KERI STONE 7-23-16
