Never said no to one in need,
Definitely one who passed no heed, A friendly smile always filled the air, As he tried to match a pair. His listening ear always turned the tables, As the smoke raised throughout encounters, Joined by surrounding troubles, For he was not one to burst someone’s bubble. The neighbouring nests felt a chill that Thursday morning, For a gentleman had passed through the gates without a warning, Although his flight was short, his heart comforted without a second thought, A heart born not bought. For he is at flight overseeing with his mate, No longer will those darts fly or garage door stick, No more treasure hunts for cable ties or cheeky smile invoking lines, Russian dolls could not shield his talent. For now they stand as his pride, The rattling of wrenches brings warmth to those who pass by, As we have said goodbye. .
