    This video aims to bring the poems "Only a Dad" and "Opportunity", to life.
    "Only a Dad" is a poem by Edgar Albert Guest that describes the hard work and dedication of a father who comes home tired from the daily race. The poem praises the sacrifices that fathers make for their children, even though they may not receive gold or fame.
    "Opportunity" by Berton Braley is an uplifting poem that encourages readers to pursue their dreams and not give up on their aspirations. The poem uses rhetorical questions to challenge the reader's negative mindset and provides examples of all the untapped potential in the world.
    The poems in this video are narrated by Shane Morris (an award winning voice actor). We took care to edit the audio as perfectly as we could.
    The video was created by Dream Editing. This is a very iterative process and we test out a lot different footage to give you the best viewing experience. We try not to distract from the poem itself.

    I was searching for something to dedicate to my Dad on his birthday and I think it's a perfect birthday wish for him because he's a fan of classic poems 😍👍

      To me it is the opposite of praising your dad it's so generic and it's war bent. My father died this year by getting hit by a car and I signed off after a long coma. This poem sucks

    Why poetry ,deep words words that ignite emotions .
    Who we are as human ?
    Not a machine not AI generated algoritham but a amazing creature and what makes us amazing is our emotion.
    People deny this emotions but when you do this you are destroying humanity .
    You want human to be without emotions just like machine or mean human with no herats and feeling .
    Yong genertion emotions are good open you're heart for this emotions .listen it feel it .
    Don't listen to them who say smotions are bad ?
    You have to be intelligent but being intelligent does not mean you have no emotion.
    Please listen to this deep words and open hearts for emotions .

    Inspirational, really? Semantically it's very close to "Cat's in the cradle." I never saw that as the story of a good father, but it's among the favourite songs of mine. Who didn't know when my birthday is, when I was visiting the family because it was my 27th birthday. I doubt he ever took in the lyrics.
