A Gentleman sadly missed.
By all whose lives
You have touched.
The world is poorer with your loss.
But a bigger, better Universe
Your knowing smile and sense of fun
Is missed by us & everyone.
Father,
Grandfather ,
Husband,
Friend.
This parting
is temporary.
It is not the end.
As a referee
you always knew.
That how life played out
Depended on you.
Although the rules can be very hard.
You never got .
a straight red card
a yellow maybe now and then
Forgive. Forget, bounce back again.
you played a great game of life.
Loved by your friends your sons and wife.
but now the final whistle’s blown.
We’re left with all the seeds you’ve sown.
This game is neither won nor lost.
But time for us to count the cost.
Man down.
Side-lined
But never gone.
We know that you.
Have just moved on
To referee bigger games
While your legacy
of love remains.
It was a pleasure knowing you Peter even though it was only for a short while.
