Memories of him bring me moments of joy <br />He was a young man when I was a young boy <br />When he left Claraghatlea for the U S of A <br />Where he is living and growing old today <br />Dark haired and handsome not hard to recall <br />Patsy the Master quite dashing and tall <br />Claraghatlea's loss is America's gain <br />But good memories of him in Millstreet does remain <br />With those who grew up with him and in Millstreet did stay <br />They have fond memories of Patsy today <br />One who could tell or laugh at a good joke <br />Patsy the Master a memorable bloke <br />The years would not have changed him he would be the same <br />He had a spirit that time could not tame.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/patsy-the-master/
