Paul Beadnall Poet Rhyme

A Poem For a Friend

EVERY DAY THAT GOES BY 
I ALWAYS QUESTION MYSELF WHY
THAT LIFE HAS TO BE SO UNFAIR
WHEN I WALK IN THE HOUSE AND YOU`RE NOT THERE

GROWING UP OVER THE BORDER A FAMILY OF FIVE
I STILL CAN`T BELIEVE DAD THAT YOU ARN`T ALIVE
YOU AND VERY CLOSE MATE GEORGE BROWN 
IN THE GLASS BARRELL OR A PUB IN THE TOWN

AND EVERYONE THAT YOU DID KNOW
SAY THERE`S JOE AND GEORGE FROM THE MUPPET SHOW
YOU LOVED GOING OUT AND PLAYING POOL DOUBLES
A NICE FEW PINTS AND HOME.... NO TROUBLES

DAD IT WILL BE SO HARD FOR ME
TO FULlFIL YOUR WISHES, YOUR ASHES AT SEA.




WROTE FOR A FRIEND WHO`S FATHERS MEMORIAL IS COMING UP
