Jethro was a marvellous soul
He made me laugh out loud
His lovely voice a character of Cornwall
thus endowed
he represented humour
old fashioned maybe so
the respect he had for Cornwall
the greatest chap I know
he saw it as an obligation
an accountability
his duteousness prevailing
he was decent actually
his jokes were sometimes bawdy
but his ethicality
was appropriate and passionate
to Cornwall where he be
i will surely miss him
his heart his soul his voice
richly decked with sumptuous tones
he was His master choice
lovable for certain
Cornish through and through
the quality he had for life
was endearing and was true.
