My Dinner Table

Off all people i would most like to meet
At my Dinner Table, please take a seat
We could all choose Who - for various reasons
Just like nature, chose her seasons
 
A recent chap elected so
Its Obama man, go man go
 
Mr David Attenborough, the animals man
If they can do it, he can prove they can
 
Freddie Mercury, deceased singer of Queen
We could Bo Rap, if you know what i mean
 
Robin Islands, Awesome dude
He changed South Africa, with his wonderful good
This amazing guy, gets two more lines
Nelson Mandela is mighty fine
 
Grace Kelly of Monaco, of such beauty - Rainier knows
No longer with us, her spirit flows
 
Then there is me a Highland Lad
To the five above, my tables glad
Incredible in their own way
Two have gone, but there all here to stay
Presence, Legacy left behind
Indeed they are one of a kind.
 
To be so proud and able
To grace My Dinner Table.
