Presbyterian Church Elder Welder

He's a Presbyterian Elder
By occupation Car Welder: 
If you don't mind: Welder Elder,
By choice in the job, not fell there...

Fellow Elders for the good air,
Easy to find them in nice wear,
Grudging not a perfumed hair,
With two good cars and still a spare...

So, special: this Welder Elder,
Doting Husband of Emelda,
User of the job's Equipment. 
Likely seeker of a shipment;
To the tasks truest commitment
Like Lord God's Eleventh Commandment...

A Charles resting much on shoulder
Fellow Elders sure a boulder.
