Poetry - Harry

He was out of the circle, eccentric like

Everybody in the circle was protected

And could run for cover

But Harry was an odd sock

From a dryer full of argyle

He was like a comic actor’s shoe

A light low-heeled slipper - but one

He tended to hang out alone - all one

But don’t get me wrong

He was bright and funny, just different

Maybe he was a tad naïve

Since he was a native from another place

That was probably it

We here in Thornhill probably didn’t know

That in Harry’s hometown of Regent Park

He was the reigning king
