A great friend to all

A chapter in the book Honoring others

Happy Birthday Paul

by Debi Pick Marquette



I knew that he taught math in school, and did it for ten years

I wasn't sure why he had stopped and then had changed careers 

Then working in the fishing trade, seemed like an awesome life

Been married 57 years to his sweet and lovely wife



But here he helps so many, like a teacher still on call

And always does it from his heart, because he’s our friend, Paul



He published his first book of poems, which I just now found out

So I dug more into his life, to see what he's about

His picture shows a handsome man, of course that is the truth

Was time you spent by the water, perhaps Fountain of Youth?



This awesome writing family, won't let each other fall

Your reviews show us this quality, our loyal dear friend, Paul


He might be one of very few who lives in USA

Who has a clue what we go through on the worst Winter’s day

He lives a little farther north than Minnesota state

From Maine, I have a feeling that he really can relate


If you see him in the hall, give the best present of all

Wish him well and make him feel, like he is ten feet tall!


We hope your day is wonderful; go have yourself a ball 

And while you do, we wish for you, a Happy Birthday, Paul
