The man I met on Tiger Hills

He’s a man with plenty of wit and wisdom
Who has made on this lovely hill, his own Kingdom
He can charm you with his legendary tales
Of glorious days that shine o’er blooms & vales

He’s a man who walks alongside the high & mighty
Yet not one to let his pride come before his piety
He can talk endlessly, yet keep you glued
Coz he’s the ‘been there, done that’ dude

He’s a man who has made his mark in this world
With perseverance, overcoming hardships untold
Everything that he was, is, and will be
His story unveils it with dignity and glee

He’s a man who has built a home within a home
In memory of his loving wife, this special dome
That celebrates her life, her likes and every desire
And brings her alive with his generous praise & revere

He’s a man you wish you had met too
And his home is a treasure house out of the blue
Where every room speaks of him, and his muse
His garden, a beautiful respite from the blues

He’s certainly a man worth writing this about
Coz he stands testimony to being all devout
He puts his heart & soul in everything he does
And that’s what inspires you to go make the buzz
