Uncle

My uncle was a tall man
He stood head above the crowds

He was a gentle man

With a twinkle in his eye


He had very long legs

And strode along with confidence


As he walked through his life


And now that he has departed

I cannot say for sure, where he walks to next


But I do not doubt, he will be welcomed

Wherever he might be


And loved for his warmth

And his generosity


As I shall remember him
