The Old Fellow Dan

In the City of Warrnambool the happiest man
He greets strangers as friends the old fellow Dan
People who have known him for years says he has always been this way
As he greets everyone with a cheerful good day
In his early eighties a balding silver haired great grand-dad
One can say of him that he never looks sad
For sadness in his mind there is not any space 
He always does have a big smile on his face
He grieved at the passing of his wife Jo
She died of cancer going back eight years or so
Though great grief at her passing of for many months he did know
It did not kill in him his bright inner glow
Wherever old Dan is joy is  to be found
He carries it with him and shares it around.
