Dec 2010
You wandered alone in the rain.
I called out to you in vain.
I held the cold air alone in pain.
On your cold empty bed i had lain.

I saw you today when i looked into the mirror.
You were my handsome rover.

I felt your heart beat when i put my hand on my chest.
In everlasting greens forever you will rest.

I sense your presence whenever i walk myself to your hills.
As the world emits your spirit i know i feel.
Your green eyes dwell on the banks where the country lovers climb to pick flowers.
Your song echoes forever in the hearts of lonely rovers.

I miss that long road down the hill to the sea.
There you swaggered the morning away for me to see.
So dreamy and radiant like a precious gem.
To those trees by the water that bloomed as you sang to them.

My Father...
My Rover...
My Saviour...
Galman Frederick Ferguson
