Parminder

 

we know a brilliant accountant
into property development
is he into embezzlement?
no! not his style of management.

extravagant
flamboyant
not a bit arrogant
exuberant
 observant
pretends to be  delinquent
but  surprisingly gallant

efficient,  intelligent
but  a logic discrepant
object of endearment

does not have the refinement
that’s needed for retirement

his diet causes puzzlement
his humour, bewilderment
his exercise incessant
gives me a torn ligament

he’s such an odd oddment
that there is no  replacement

acts like an adolescent
causes embarrassment

a bit of a mixed compliment
who’d have  him any different?

He’s sixty today.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
