Driving home recently, he returned.

He always wore a sparkly hat,

a star atop the xmas tree.

So many Fridays, often warm days,

meeting at the open marketplace,

I would lay my head on his shoulder.

Silence would gather around us.

Such a heart maker, pain in the ass,

I tell you, we loved him so.
