Dave

Two years ago to cancer he  lost his beloved wife
 In her fiftieth year she lost her battle for life
Ten years ago their only child in his late teens in a motoring accident died
That he knows about life's tough side of him cannot be denied

In his fifty fourth year life has not been easy on Dave
But it cannot be said of him that he is not brave
Of the up and down sides of life he is one who does know
But one can say of him he has the inner glow

The Dave's of the World to say the least rare
With dignity and bravery his crosses in life he does bear
He says  i may have known sad times but i have many a good memory
Of my beloved wife and son of how it used to be

His wife June and son Tim in the family grave
And though he has  known times of grief and sorrow Dave
Realizes he cannot change the past since the past it has gone
And with the living of life  he does go on.
