ORPHANS
An angel came into my life that day
you were the angel who would say
I will always be here for you
and all the other children too.
We were all adopted by you
I was just one of quite a few
you did everything to make us happy
you were strict but fair
we were educated and then at age
settled in a career with a good wage
You would go anywhere in the world
to see any of us get married
you were a good father to us all
we will never forget you
or all the things you did for us too
god has taken you away now
but we will never forget
everything you taught us
dedicated to a man who helped run an orphanage

The true meaning of love is a selfless love
N it's exemplified here by your description
of a man who clearly had love in His heart...
Touching tribute :)

A touching tribute to a most deserving man! My favorite lines:
"you were a good father to us all
we will never forget you
or all the things you did for us too "
