Sir Geofrey

On RiverGlen Marina
there's this gentleman named Geof
he slashes all around us
clears up most of the mess !

He's a ''Knight'' in shinning armour
to most who hold him dear
he tackles nearly anything
with hardly any fear !

He used to be so quiet
hardly said a word
now all over the marina
his cheek is always heard !

He demands his can of coke
on a day of extreme heat
chocolates and choc cookies,
all are bribing treats !

''WHAT''! Is often heard
if he does not recieve request,
his voice gets very loud,
and some bird's do leave their nest !

''YOUR JOKING ME''!...Is stated
if coke you do not have
''You expect your area slashed,
yet there's nothing to receive'' !

The Ute is often seen,
patroling RiverGlen,
looking out for rubbish
and checking all the Wren's.

But do not leave your chocolates
anywhere that he can see
try to hide your cookies
coz 'ol Geof can get quite mean !

After all thats said and done
you won't find a fairer man
always there to help you
always with a coke in hand.

I liked this tribute poem very much. Well written. I feel as if you've done a wonderful job of introducing us to Sir Geofrey. Thanks.
