My friend Jack

Just a poem to my friend Jack, of the Daniels dynasty, that is.

My friend Jack

Happy New Year,

You're always fun

To be with, among

Each, and every one

Of all the friends

Whom I have none

You watched me when

I drank and drowned

And brought me back

From where I'm bound

You watched me dance

Alone, at night

And held my hand

And taught me to write

You made me laugh

When I'm bound to cry

Helped me, without

Asking me why

Happy New Year

Jack, my friend

I know, you can't hear

But let me pretend.
