The day’s work is done,

The toolbox closed.

The engines can wait awhile.

 

You earned your rest

The honest way –

With hard work, grit and a smile.

 

We’ll think of you

Whenever a motor starts,

Or the smell of oil fills the air.

 

Thanks for every lesson, Dad.

We’ll see you down the track
