His mum and dad were often financially down
And he knew of poverty on the poor side of the town
One of the few children of the lesser gods
Who in his life's battle has beaten the odds
A grandfather ten times his hair silver gray
He and his wife of fifty four years live in a two storey house overlooking the bay
If living today his mum and his dad would feel proud of their son
Of how well in life for himself he has done
As a boy he was one who with hope did keep faith
And as is said every thing does come to those who do wait
In life he availed of every opportunity that came his way
And he lives as a wealthy and contented person today
With the woman he married the love of his life
The mother of his children his devoted wife.
