Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
This is a beautifully stated poem about a father. The repetition is effectively used. The text is a great size. The message is clearly presented and easy to understand. Anyone having a dad like this would be a lucky child.
The spacing is off in this poem. I would lessen the space at the end of the poem to match the spacing at the top of the poem. The visual fits well. Good luck in the contest.

I liked this a lot, as the poem was thought-provoking, and the revelation at the end was a joy - the father, whose words and actions were loving,brave, memorable. Well-written. Best wishes for your entry.

nicely done tribute to your father. I like the repetition it works well throughout the poem. the poem hints that you might be talking about walking with God but in the end it is about your father.

Comment from Cherish Adams
What a sweet tribute to an exceptional man. "He's step by step....." line was repeated three times as required. Rhyme scheme is solid. Good job. Thank you for sharing your dad with us.

Comment from Nicki Nance
Such a lovely tribute to what sounds like a lovely human. You expressed him as nouns, verbs, and adjectives without losing a sense of rhyme and rhythm. Nicely done.

Comment from patcelaw
This is a beautiful poem that you have written about your dad. You are one less person to have had a father, who gave you unconditional love. There are so many people out there today who have never experienced that kind of love from their parents. I am one of those people as my parents never showed me unconditional love. Patricia.

Comment from jmdg1954
What an excellent tribute to your dad. We dads always hope to hear these words you've penned. If not by word, then by actions.
Nicely done and I had a few favorite lines that resonated with me.
Thanks for sharing.

This is one of the loveliest tributes to a father I have ever read on this site. You have painted a vivid picture of what kind of an he is and how he has fit into your life all these years. I hope you can wait till Father's Day to give him this. Rod

I am a father and I hope my kids look upon me in the manner you are looking upon your father, a firefighter of courage, stamina, trust carrying his love for you just as securely as he carries the life-saving hose into a burning building. Good stuff.
