Her hair was up in a pony-tail,
her favorite dress tied in a bow.
Today was Daddy's day at school,
and she couldn't wait to go.
But her Mommy tried to tell her,
that she should probably stay home.
Why the kids might now understand,
if she went to school alone.
But she was not afraid.
She knew just what to say.
What to tell her
classmates, of why he wasn't there.
But still her Mother worried,
for her to face this day alone.
And that is why once again,
she tried to keep her daughter home.
But the little girl went to school,
eager to tell them all,
about the Dad she never sees,
a Dad who never calls.
You tell me, is this a Dad?
