~ Father of Few Words ~



Seldom twice uttered;
Once was enough.
Always you cared;
Often were tough.

Strolling to town
You on outside;
Protecting me always
With fatherly pride.

Remember times waiting
on 19th Green.

Few times heard,
But always seen!

Shoes shined glossy
Could see reflection;

Wash behind ears
Aim for perfection!

Those few words
Seldom you'd say;
Taught me well...
Respect, honour, obey!

I loved you ...
Your distant presence;
Those few words;
Your deafening silence.

Now I farewell;
With few words.

... My few words ...

  "Rest in Peace"
