A Poem for Dads on Mother’s Day
by Barrett

Photo collages are ideal for creating the perfect holiday card. Here’s how to do it all at home with a poem for easy reference.
What have you been doing with those thousands of family photos you’ve collected over the past years? Posting a few on Instagram or Facebook? That’s great. But what about all of the others?
Well, you can create annual photo books that will capture hundreds of your favorite photos. Those photo books should last through the century (actual mileage may vary). But that’s always a huge project to pull off.
Tackling a smaller version where you’re collecting only 15-20 images is clearly more manageable. How about applying that towards a “photo collage?!”
(Light bulb moment)
Photo collages are perfect for holidays or any occasion to give a physical card.
You just load your photos into a template. (Lots of photo websites like Shutterfly offer this.) You can pay them to print your card, or you can take a screenshot and instantly print out the photo collage card yourself. (That’s what I do.)
In honor of all mothers (and one in particular), here’s my little poem for fathers that doubles as an emergency instruction manual.
Instructions for Fathers on Mother’s Day
That day has arrived
When dads should applaud
With a pile of gifts
Though we are so flawed
But time is fleeting
Delays mute your plans
Amazon is late
Your wish is now sans
You are on your own
Just laptop and pics
A photo collage
That could be the fix
The story is there
For you to now share
You’ve got the photos
For you to declare
Websites will help you
To do this cool trick
Just load it all in
A template is slick
Then print out your card
It’s easy as pie
You’re back in the game
It’s okay to cry
Stuff doesn’t matter
It’s the life you share
Your collage reflects
Each day that you care
Say Happy Mom’s Day
For all that you are
This photo collage
Shows you are my star
Wow! Inspiring stuff!
I too wrote a poem for the mother’s!
Well…for my wife…she is a mother.
Arby’s in the morning.
You love meat for breakfast.
I love you so much.
And you know I’m not sexist.
You’re the mother to our children.
My beautiful babies.
I love you so much.
Don’t want any other ladies.
So relax and unwind.
Do something out of the blue.
Do something crazy.
Like get a skeleton tattoo.
The needle might hurt.
But it’s your decision to make.
You could also stay home.
And bake yourself a cake.
Don’t let that neighbor upset you.
The one with the nub hand.
She may talk outta turn.
But listen to your hubs Rand.
It wouldn’t be worth it.
Just don’t go over.
She’s certifiably bonkers.
Killed that dog with her Land Rover.
I’ll love you no matter what.
You’re my princess and you know it.
You’ve got a great figure.
And you love to show it.
Let’s open some wine.
And put on Barry White.
Now get over here!
Cuz it’s Mother’s Day night!
