Old Joe

On looking back the Seasons time does go so fast
And  only the memories of what was seems to last
Old Joe likes to talk of when he was young
When by many locals his praises were sung
When he kicked the winning goal on Grand Final Day
For him he remembers the loud hip hooray
But that is  going back some sixty years ago
And time as we know  becomes everyone's foe
And Joe who turned eighty four years in May
Is now walking slowly and showing his years in gray
But in the local pub with a few beers in
He talks of the day when he helped the Club to win
The Premiership Flag in a great footballing display
When he kicked  the winning goal to become the hero of the day.
