We would like to wish all the fathers out there a very happy Father’s Day. <\/p>\n

I came across this little poem by an unknown author, and if you’re a father you should definitely appreciate it.<\/p>\n

The Unreasonable Pa<\/strong><\/p>\n

My Pa, he didn’t go downtown
\nLast evening after tea,
\nBut got a book an’ settled down
\nAs comfy as could be.<\/p>\n

I’ll tell you I was offul glad
\nTo have my pa about,
\nTo answer all the things I had
\nBeen tryin’ to find out.<\/p>\n

An’ so I asked him why the world
\nIs round instead of square;
\nAn’ why the piggies’ tails are curled,
\nAn’ why fish don’t breathe air.<\/p>\n

An’ why the moon don’t hit a star,
\nAn’ why the dark is black;
\nAn’ just how many birds there are,
\nAn’ will the wind come back?<\/p>\n

An’ why does water stay in wells?
\nAn’ why do June bugs hum?
\nAn’ what’s the roar I hear in shells?
\nAn’ when will Chritsmas come?<\/p>\n

An’ why the grass is always green,
\nInstead of sometimes blue?
\nAn’ why a bean will grow a bean
\nAn’ not an apple too?
\n\"\" <\/p>\n

An’ then my pa got up – an’, Gee!
\nThe offul words he said.
\nI hadn’t done a thing, but he
\nJust sent me off to bed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
