The epitome of how a real man should be
with decency, class and so gentlemanly 
so much presence from such a small frame
deservedly becoming a household name 


He had that quiet unassuming way
Impeccable manners always on display 
Such stamina with the heart of a lion
with the presence of a gentle giant


You gave so much without complaining 
gave others the courage to start campaigning 
Unbelievable what you have achieved 
Gaining a knighthood you deservedly received


You touched so many hearts and minds
In these dark times you lit up our lives
You’re the person we want if you hit rock bottom
A warrior who should never be forgotten


You gave your all right up til the end
Our inspiration and everyone’s friend
You were taken Captain Tom in a cruel twist
You were so loved 🥰 and will be truly missed
