Farewell

Genteel and articulate, 
An inspiration you have been. 
Loyalty and Passion
In you, we have seen. 

Rising through ranks, 
Sweat blood all this while. 
Making your way, 
Through every test and trial. 

It's about time, 
To graciously pass the baton. 
Leaving a legacy, 
That we'll now build upon. 

Your cabin walls, 
Will confine you no more. 
You're set free, 
To venture and to explore. 

Nostalgia lingers, 
As we bid adieu. 
Happy 2nd innings Sir, 
A new life awaits you!
