My Friend Indy

To Indiana

If you was me 
And I was you
What would we really do

So once upon a time, I thought I would write a rhyme
But then I thought I had run out of time

Because slowly, slowly time departs
But I just never seemed to start

I looked, I listened and thought I smelt the hay
Only to lose my way

Your family after all were not mine
They were neither Clancy, Keady or a Klyne

I did though see gravestones in a churchyard called Barna
And wondered is that maybe my Grand-Father

Time is short and running out, so I started to shout
I also nearly gave up, but never again now or ever
As you are my trusted mentor

Without you my friend I wouldn’t have made it
But I was never really sure until you knocked on my door

You have helped me ever so much, and I thank you and wish you all the luck
Best wishes and my friendship forever

All my love to you Indiana

Beautiful tribute to Indiana, and I see Indiana has discovered this and has commented. Nicely done!
