Dickie

I will always remember your joyfulness,
The way you liked being the best,
The cabbages, cauliflowers and tomatoes you grew
Were always the biggest by far, than all the rest,
Like yourself a big man, tall and broad,
Sparkling blue eyes, warmest smile you ever saw,
Loud booming voice, as strong as your presence,
Honest and so so kind like an angel from heaven,
Your simple ways, were as pure as the earth you loved,
Roses and tulips blooming in abundance,
From gifted hands, that toiled so hard.

You spoke your mind, your spirit strong,
Standing up when people did wrong,
You were known by so many,
People drawn to your warmth and charm,
You have gone from us all many a year,
Our hearts ache, as our eyes fill with tears,
The man we knew as Dickie who had no fear,
We wish he was back beside us near,
His character and soul lives on around us,
True goodness and happiness lingering on,
My dad's unique spirit everlasting,
As the earth we live on.
