Sometimes, the only way to truly tell them how you feel about them is by giving them a poem that says how important they are to you, and how your life will not be the same without them. It has been suggested that poetry was used in our long distant past as a creative means of passing along traditions and history simply because the poetic language was easy to memorize and enjoyable to recite.
And if you're really motivated, you can spend half an hour of prep time reading some classical romantic poems to get your brain into the groove. Father's Day poems make excellent gifts. Greeting card publishers are always interested in new poems to share with card buyers.
Romantic poems that bring out the best in people's hearts are still written even though they do not receive the same attention that they used to. One of the most often quoted writers of love poems is William Shakespeare. Perhaps you can extract some meaning from the lines that hit home, and perhaps the poem is crap to start out with, so go find a poet you like.
What a treasure the poem will be. This is a fun way to get everybody in the mood to celebrate.
