Will Miss You Rian
(this is a little ode to Rian ..a lovely lad whose sparkle has given our Farmer's market in Dunedin a boyish fizz)
Oh dear…what’s that in my eye?
I fear a tear is near
Ah the curiosity of lachrymosity
Why am I starting to cry?
(cos I'm an emotional guy)
Rian.. not a dyslexic downpour
Spelt in a svelte refrain
Celt strain for sure
On your final day
Wanted to say farewell
Wish you all the best
In a pure heartfelt way
Puff out your chest
Quick to jest ..got the zest
For the fest that's life's quest
After 18 years..plenty of tears..many are bereft
The lad has left home.. off to roam
Poor old Grandad Geoff
Cheers mate.. of course beers
Down your gullet…with your peers
Not being a dull fuddy-duddy
But won't ruddy cull it
Annul it…or cut it
Just says shut it
Even as we tut tut it
That bloody mullet!
Too cool or a fool at school…not being cruel..BMW’s rule
Joke not a poke… a bespoke top bloke
Now you’re not broke..have a toke.. but no coke
Vim & vigour..the trigger..a bigger digger ace
Don’t snigg** .. be a detractor
Your baby face…maybe could be an actor..
You are a shining light
Clearly got that X factor
Not a slight..not really that bright
Can't read or write
But not being trite
Rian will strive…jive & thrive
And boy...can he drive a tractor alright
