For my latest "for a father" greeting card poem, I wrote what I would love to hear from my children one day: that I encouraged them, that I guided them rather than imposed my will on them, and that I helped them to be independent but to always know that I am there for support if need be. These are things that I wish I could have said to my father when he was alive. Hopefully my sentiments will make it into commercial greeting cards and so that others will not have similar regrets.
