The Driving Man
I sat there quietly watching one day
"Worse part of the job" he used to say tying the tarps and checking the load "i'd much rather be on the road" To me his life seemed complete You should have seen him there upon his seat We waved goodbye as he drove down the street until the next time we would meet. We used sit and talk for a while and throughout it was a constant smile hour after hour, mile after mile his job was a joy and never a trial. He really was one of the nicest blokes quick with the wit, or to offer a smoke you'd laugh and laugh at his anecdotes be they bout trucks,cars,buses or boats But you didnt show up the other night In fact your truck was nowhere in sight I sat there waiting to unload your truck Instead we were faced with the cruelest of luck Life had dealt you its final blow It was your last trip, no one was to know It wasnt the way it was meant to end I say to you Goodbye my friend. RIP Noel Watson (25-10-2001) "May the road to heaven treat you kindly" |
