A Poem from the The Poet and His Thoughts Collection

On birthdays we remember
Those hearts we love the most
Then when their time has moved along
We of their memory boast
One man for me remarkable
With energy and grace
Respecting life and history
He made a better place
He cared for everyone he met
In such a special way
Worked each day with diligence
Knew how to romp and play
His life was too his passion
His garden and his work
He cleaned like none that came before
His duties he’d not shirk
He was a father and a son
A husband and a friend
His days would start with energy
That lasted till the end
He knew what life was all about
His God was close beside
Acknowledging this man of strength
With passion zeal and pride
And now with heaven as his realm
He counsels and consoles
A true purveyor of God’s love
With never any tolls
