Up the Hill

I went up the Kiwi to see the tree
It was Mike Parke I went to see
We had a chat and put the world to rights
And yes we established im too old to fight

Sat up their on the hill
I really saw what was the thrill
The view you have is truly amazing 
In the distance the sheep are grazing

Mike your legacy lives on 
A true gent with a beautiful son
Kady has really done you proud
I just wish you were still around

You touched the hearts of all you met
Even when you made us sweat
I feel for your family as you have gone
But like I say you legacy goes on

Thanks again Mike for all you have done
In life and even now when you have gone
You are a star and truly missed
And before you say no im not p####d

Thankyou for you chat today
Made it clearer
Showed me the way
In your debt I will always be
Enjoy it mike FLYING FREE !!!!!
