He has become just one more victim of time
The town's greatest athlete in his physical prime
The hair on his balding head is silver gray
He had his good innings of him one can say
In his mid eighties the years on him show
His fastest pace nowadays to say the least slow
He is not the man that he was years ago
Eventually time becomes everyone's foe
A great grandfather divorced from his wife
He is one who has known of better days in life
The years on his ageing body does show
His fastest pace nowadays to say the least slow
Of far better days in life he surely has known
One of the town's eldest people he lives on his own.
