\"Tom Moore\" (An Acrostic in Honour of Sir Captain (Colonel) Tom Moore)

 

Through a majestic century, his tender warmth, and his

Outstanding courage, will forever be cemented in our

Minds, to teach us all, that to give, is to live, and that in

 

Morbid times, even at death’s door, he choose to be

Obstinate to every obstacle, thus lap after lap, we became

Overcome with awe, due to his shining example, his lion’s

Roar, roaring for us all to unite, to fight, so that what we

Enjoy, can still be relished, even though he; takes his final bow.
