For His Lack Of

 For his lack of success and money and fame
He says that he only has himself to blame
He says he has had his chances and he left them go by
Yet he is honest with his feelings none of him can deny

He does not have any children he knows of or a partner or a wife
Though as a younger man many women came to and went from his life
In the years when he was working for good pay with plenty money to spend
He was never short then of a female friend

But going back the Seasons this was long ago
Long before time it did become his foe
In his early eighties in a one bedroom flat he lives on his own today
One who is showing his age the hair on his balding head is silver grey

He is down to earth in his own self effacing way
Quite an honourable fellow of him one can say
He says of my life's opportunities i did not avail
And society does see me as one who did fail.
