~~OLD LES~~
FOR TINA AND FAMILY
I MET LES WILLSON AWHILE BACK ON LINE
THAT WAS SEVERAL YEARS AGO
OUR FRIENDSHIP GREW FOR REASONS
THAT I THINK ALL HIS FRIENDS SHOULD KNOW
HE HAD JUST LOST HIS LOVING WIFE
GOD HAD TAKEN HER AWAY
AND MY FRIEND LES COULDN'T COPE
AND WANTED TO DIE THAT DAY
I TOLD HIM AT THAT TIME
TO THINK ABOUT HIS PLAN
THAT IT WOULDN'T BE FAIR
FOR ALL OF HIS FRIENDS AND CLAN
TO ESPECIALLY THINK OF TINA
THAT HE WAS CLOSEST TO
HER FEELING WOULD BE DOUBLED
AS TO WHAT HE WAS GOING THROUGH
HE LIVED IN A SMALL HOME
BEHIND TINA WHO IS HIS DAUGHTER
AND ALL THIS TIME I WAS TALKING TO HIM
MY EYES WERE FILLED WITH WATER
THAT CHAT THAT WE WERE HAVING
BOUND US TOGETHER GOOD AND TIGHT
WE NEVER DID MEET FACE TO FACE
BUT I REALIZED HIS PLIGHT
I TALKED TO HIM IN THE HOSPITAL
JUST BEFORE HE PASSED AWAY
AND SOME HOW I COULD SENSE
HE WOULD BE WITH HIS LOVE IN A DAY
I DIDN'T SEND NO FLOWERS
I JUST GRABBED A BIG SHOT GLASS
FILLED IT FULL OF GODS OWN WINE
TOASTED LES WHO GOT HIS WISH AT LAST
