A  FOOL

She often calls me an old fool true
And to some extent right all along
I walked in  life to my dads values
His values always remained strong

He  loved my mum all the way true
Regardless of all she was doing then
She never loved him but he was there
In all times of woe away's back when

She belted me with all things because
With me there she was stuck right there
She never ;aid a hand on my half bro
Never belonged to dad for him she'd spsre

His father was dads brother in law both same
Nieter had any values in life so to in life speak
My eldest sister how mum got dad way back
I had a younger sister as shy as she was meek

Dad stood tall walked proud but nobody game
To ever say a word to my dad face to face
Dad was a top boxer and could fight well
Them they were all cowards of disdrace

I grew up as dad had done standing tall
As he was a soul and one of  my very word
Dad never argued with any of them true
He was all stamina them more like a bird

He'd not argue with mum anytime he knew
She would could do whatever came to mind
As psychic as but scitsaphrenic as well also
In those days to both the world was blind

I wrote a poem back then all of it so true
The best of the best and worst of worst
An ever clever woman ability none stop
But she quenched her ever single thirst

She sae his love as one would a real fool
He was strong loved God walked the line
He wore it all always stood so very tall
Loved us kids endlessly all of the time

All those in town admired him no end
That were respectale everyr single one
His abilities working none ending too
All knew what he was about and some

All I ever wanted was to be half the man
That he was in life come what ever  may
But I must say I'll not know that very time
I could never wear it all as had anyway

To some extent I'm often called a fool
By the one that I endlessly do adore
She's a good woman never made love
She's mums oppersite and even more

At least she never cheats that I know
Waits on me so much in it'd true
Making love not her thing it seems
So like dad I'm her foolI guess  too
 
But after nine years awaits a time
All my worries in life will ceace
And if any wish to come for a chat
The graveyard stone named R I P

I've always been a good guy in life
Quiet as one cld say true a mule
Educated more than many will know
But never the less to some a fool
