Good Looking Boy With a Full Head of Hair

Dedicated to the picture on my sisters fridge 

I have only ever seen photographs of you as a young lad 
Because I only ever knew you when you were my dad

But you were a good looking boy 
With a thick head of hair 
And muscular physique 
With an air of mystique  
When you were at your peak

I hope your not sad 
I hope you are happy 
I pray you are at peace 

I treasure the image 
Of the smile across your face 

Because you really were a good looking boy
With a thick head of hair 
And muscular physique 
With an air of mystique 
When you were at your peak
