THE FINAL PARADE
He'll always be there, laughing, young and full of fun,
With all his
mates around him, true friends, every one.
The things they've done together, bind
them closer still,
Friendships born at tender age, endure, and always will.
Though
life moves on, down well worn roads, and people come and go,
He'll cherish those whose
time he shared, the ones he came to know
so well, when life was rich, the future still
unread,
And boldly looking forward to the challenges ahead.
And through the intervening
years, till mortal life's span ends,
He'll know that still, above all else, he had
the gift of friends
who knew his faults, endearing ways, his strengths and foibles
too,
As no one else could,in his time, workmates or colleagues new.
So at last, the
Passing Out, when goodbyes must be said,
He's reached his final goal, to join the
pals who've gone ahead
To make a place for him, amongst all those on Heaven's Square,
Prepared
to welcome those to come, their comradeship to share.
Outsiders never understand the
bond that holds us tight,
It's difficult to put in words, it's like a shining light
that
guides us through life's tortuous path until the final end,
But sums it up in six
small words -
