On this day I shall honour my Dad br who made me and my siblings quite mad, br though this happened back then br and today we are men br who can only be thoughtful and sad. br br He has gone to his place in the sky, br where he, doubtless, still wears that silk tie. br We shall toast you this noon br and I'll eat with A SPOON br two large pieces of blueberrypie. br br Perhaps you are tempted to spank br but today is the day to be frank. br Well, we took a deep breath br when you left. And in death br even generals give up their rank.
