The Likeable Fellow

A good living person he never harms anyone His mum and his dad in him raised a good son One who loves his family as well as his wife So sad for to hear he is battling for life A grandad in his mid sixties three decades past his prime He has been unwell only for a brief time Undergoing chemotherapy and feeling quite ill As he fights lung cancer a disease known to kill One who makes others happy he does love to sing To parties and social gatherings joy with him he bring A likeable person in him nothing bad And at news of his illness so many feel sad He enjoyed a few beers and loved music and song And often at the local pub led the sing along One who did work hard for his every pay It is karma gone wrong in his life one can say It is a fact we are born as mortals and fact never lie But not every victim of cancer does die One hopes he survives for to see in the Spring The likeable fellow who does love to sing.
