Dino

Silver haired and balding he may never more see
The city he was born in and raised far north in Italy
The years are showing in Dino far south of Milan
Sixty years in Australia of time a lengthy span
Eight years ago of cancer his wife Jan passed away
To each other devoted he still talks of her today
Many time a great grandfather he is growing old on his own
And of better days in life he surely of has known
He speaks English rather well and is easy to understand
Though he still retains the accent he brought from his homeland
Quite a lot to like in Dino he is honest generoous and kind
He is the sort of person who does seem pure of mind
In his ways warm and friendly he says hello to all he meet
When he is out walking in the park or on the street.
