Old Jack Poem by Francis Duggan

Old Jack

Rating: 0.5


Than any singer i know more songs he has sung
Old Jack may be getting old but he does feel young
He never did father children or never did have a wife
But women are very much part of his life
And though in his mid seventies and his hair silver gray
Once a week his partner in her late sixties with him has an overnight stay
One is only as old as he or she feels as some like to say
And old Jack does not feel old in any way
He does know the words of many a ballad and song
The local lead singer of the pub sing along
So happy go lucky and always carefree
Him in a bad mood i have yet for to see
In his mind for unhappiness there is no space
Old Jack he will die with a smile on his face.
