Gordon Jackson Removals

Acclaimed thespian Gordon Jackson
has moved into removals,
driving a decommissioned
Fine Fare delivery van.


He'll move your fittings and fixtures.
He'll move your birds of paradise.
He'll move your Singer Sargent pictures
at a very competitive price.

He'll move you all to weep.
He'll move mountains, trees and mists
with such beautiful technique:
bent hips, bent knees, no twists.

Tuneful of whistle, curved of back
from carrying all the fridges.
Glad to get to one o'clock;
his lunch packed by Mrs Bridges.

He'll go upstairs, he'll go down,
move anything to anywhere.
All jobs will be considered
but bungalows are preferred.

You see, he's not getting any younger.
There's a few grey hairs on his head.
Not quite as sprightly as he once was

...in fact, I think he might be dead.
