My father - 'Lifesaver'

This is my second Dad - Joscelyn E Lowrie.  He married my widowed Mom and embraced her four small children as his own. A brilliant chartered accountant, he worked tirelessly for us, even when illness confined him to a wheelchair.

LIFESAVER ... for my Dad Joscelyn E Lowrie

The carefree ones, they laughed and rushed

 Into the angry sea

The Master shook His head and sighed

Then cast His eyes at me

“Those little ones ahead of you

Will need a guide to get them through.”

The wind came up, the sky it rumbled

Upon the waves the children tumbled

I towed them safely to the shore

I gasped but I could breathe no more

The Master drew his ship up near

Hoisted my soul into heaven’s air.
