It were you

Wiping own tears who made me smile were you,
Who never let my sorrows pile were you.

In a house haunting where I lived alone,
Who even made loneliness smile were you.  

Few bother broods like me in busy world,
To my life’s lamp who supplied oil were you.

I recall playing as children long back, 
One that let me win with a guile were you. 

And to untidy and dishevelled me,
Tutoring long who gave some style were you.
