Dewi

To apply oneself

to a task in hand

on a Wintry day

is to understand

an unremitting and exhausting

day

both a  burdening and exhausting

way

demolish some steps

in a garden site

replace with dry stone

and hand rail

at a height

of painstaking labour

to apply his skill

clad in heavy oil skin

His  true treadmill

moving heaven and earth

in the icy rain

all his true endeavours

none in vain

creating from what

had been built before

into perfection

and what is more

it was carried out

in a heartfelt way

with might and main

he saved my day

he cared enough

Despite the pain  put into the task

in the pouring rain

A neighbourly friend

on a higher plain

Spadework  and legwork

again and again

sweat and tears

a fearsome chore

and he never stopped

he, from next door

I am disabled

old and grey

Dewi is special in every way

Uphill and hard fought

He can allay

tedium, he just carries on through

the promise made

he is good and true

willing and ready

to see stuff through

an action man in reality

a crusader in fact

in his wish to be

a dry stone waller

a skill set He

carries out

extraordinarily

innovative labour

valiant and true

Leaving no stone un turned

his groundwork in view

great preparation

Qualified He

keyed up and psyched up

and now purposefully

delivered the goods

in his artistic way

an object of beauty

Happened today

handrails to aid me

Exceptional skill

well prepared and practised

And with his will

and endeavour to please

All done in a morning

With consummate ease

safety was key

in his minds eye today

What had seemed a hazard

had been brushed away

awake and willing

to help me

today

and now I have a garden

i can reach

and a way

to make

The landscaping

better by far

in my little world

Dewi Thomas is a  Star

He supports

he protects

a benevolent soul

he walks his talk

he is in control

astounds with his skill set

His noteworthy design

peerless and eminent

this Dear  friend of mine

Dewi Thomas   Master  Dry Waller and all around

angel.
