Coole Park

Coole park was where he took his friends It was his joy until the end. To stroll along the wooded trails. While reminiscing or telling tales . To stop and glare at the big oak trees . Or those copper beech that stood for years . He would tell you the story of this famous place . Or read the inscriptions on the various name plates. He would salute to a stranger he met there before . For his manner was always to never ignore . Then down to the lake to his favorite seat . We would chat of our school days as if it was our first meet . Or talk of our Parent’s who are now long past and gone. Or joke about childhood and the things we had done. He would speak of his Wife Kay and children at length . That love that he gave them knew never an end . On his last days with us he never forgot . It was to Coole for that walk no matter what . Nessan you have taken your last walk in Coole . So now cool dude you walk with God . In the forest of life they call Heaven . So until we all meet again be cool. Never ever forgotten. Pat.
