Happy Birthday, Mr. Hyland…

Poem Artwork

To my favorite ranter,

Throwing around tons of banter,

Mr. Hyland can rant with the big boys,

He would make a great politician,

Maybe he might enjoy to be an obstetrician,

But I would think he more encapsulates the first,

As well as a consummate academician…

 

He has been a friend beyond & above,

Forming opinions of him from many that him love,

He comes to us from Maryland, enjoying his crabs,

He is a man of great taste & takes from me many stabs…

 

He is funny & a happy guy to know,

Not at all a man called a “hard blow”,

He speaks his mind, rarely holding back,

Of intelligence within & compassion for others,

He does not in anyway lack…

 

Thank you for being you, dear friend,

And again Happy Birthday & many more to the very end…
