- A Year On -

You were a joker
A smoker
Enjoyed a game of poker.
A dancer
A chancer
You always had an answer.

Provider
Decider
Occasional outsider.
Collector
Deflector
Paternal protector.

Drinker
Deep thinker
Cared more than people knew.
Angler
A wrangler
Loved us through and through.

A father
A son
A grandad by the end.
A husband
A brother
To many, a good friend.

A year on
Since you've gone
I dry a fallen tear
Free now
But how
I wish you were still here.
