Jack,

A man I hardly knew

it is a shame that time is nearly through

yet hope eternal still shines on

for great or small you are the man.

You made me laugh with your quirks

you me sigh when I hurt

you brought a little bit of joy

Jack the man no mere boy

This poem is yours in memory

I want you to realise to truly see

even when you threatened to kiss my nose

I could still pass on a rose

Time may be long or may be brief

I know you do not want much grief

but please remember I will always know

that when chatting to you time was not slow

So when you read this please care a smile

for the man who ran a mile

when you threatened a much loved game

with you a jokey RPG was never the same

Though while you live on

and when you are gone

I will always be sure

that you will be evermore

religion I think is sh!te

but I can say not trite

for I beleive it is true

you will live on through and through.
