Themanofjokes Poem by Francis Duggan

One of the town's more likeable and nicer young blokes
Plump in his mid twenties known as the man of jokes
Down to earth in his ways and not in any way proud
In the local pub at his jokes the laughter is loud
He does not have a partner some say he is gay
But his personal life is his business anyway
On Saturday evening in the pub in the hour of song
He is happily singing in the sing along
To many his is a loved and familiar face
And for him in it the town is a far happier place
He is one of those people who does seem carefree
The leading fun maker in his community
He is one of the town's more likeable blokes
The one known to many as the man of jokes.
