Ginger/JohnA Poem by Ewen A MorrisonJohn is a dear friend and used to be a workmate, long before I qualified as an ADI...happy times 'n' years!C-Shift's
John said: “half the lies I tell aren't true!”: we worked with Hughie, Alginate factory... Maybe 'Ginger', had convinced 'many-a-few'. Our Hughie, we adored there, me and he!
His motto " mark on dead-John's stone ~ Can't do that deed? Will compose one!
When Mr. Campbell passed on from his life, Days are numbered, as we all should know! Hugh, destined to accompany 'passed' wife; There was not a better place: "where to go"?
She kept him on the straight and narrow: Lovingly guiding: 'dearly-beloved barrow'!
Happily together. He did leave us as well: Each will bask in their shared adoration... Content in 'Afterlife', and who could tell? Bar missing finger, all was 'elaboration'!
Thanks to our 'C-shift' schooling/pastime, Enabled us all to 'get-on there, just fine'!
With present stage, must fend/foresee: Work/friends progress as all will & must! Whatever our income, pleasure may be? Praying that future is true, and as just!
Cheers, E.A.M. x
