AERON

Aeron, you wrote and spoke so well,
Your own words and your father’s
I have no more than a footnote, that I can add,
I am no actor so I would make
Only a bad parody
Of your words and your father’s words
In my cynical, nasal voice,
So given the choice,
I only write and say my respect
For the words that
You and your father set down
That don’t need to be strangely rendered
In the doggerel of a cockney clown.
