In Memoriam - Tom
Josephs
He lived his life as life
loved to be lived
To give and take and laugh and
learn alike.
He loved his girls as was
prerogatived.
On questions am'rous he was
quite a tyke.
Moreover, he his politics
liked rare,
A Tory born and bred to
question all,
Supporting working hard to
gain one's share,
Judiciously refuting lib'ral
gall.
On themes paternal he did sure
outshine
Supporting four great children
many moons
Eventually he found his love
divine
Protecting her within his warm
cocoons.
He was, dear Lord, a truly
special friend.
So, him to Thy Good Care, we
well commend.
