Dearest Dad you were the best
Even though your inquisitive mind was never at rest
We trailed through the crosswords together
To keep your mind active forever

You said that you’d had no exercise
But in reality you didn’t consider the walk to be wise
The fact that determination kept you going
We celebrated without you probably ever knowing

You had a wonderful way of remembering names
Which was executed with precision and aim
Your mind was at its best
When it was put to the test

But Dad there’s one thing you should really know
That no matter how many times you said it so
That although you were sometimes in your own bubble
Dearest Dad you were…

Never In Trouble.
