A Reverence
(to my father)
Flamboyant not a bit,
not senile any time
bovine indictments
not your piece of cake,
skill at placation smooth,
power of inveigle perfect,
frazzled not a wee bit
pessimism, a word unfit.
A leader in your own right
none can repudiate
and the one who lived to put
the Hebrew etymology right
‘Grace is God’s smile’
To you is this tribute.
