IN MEMORIAM CAPT. EMILE JAYAWARDENA – By Elmo Jayawardena

IN MEMORIAM CAPT. EMILE JAYAWARDENA - By Elmo Jayawardena

 

IN OUR HOME TOWN OF MORATUWA

PEOPLE  ALWAYS CALLED HIM CAPTAIN

HE FLEW SPITFIRES AND DAKOTAS

 IN THE GOLDEN AGE OF AVIATION

I CERTAINLY COULD NEVER BE THE PILOT HE WAS

I PROBABLY WOULD NEVER BE AS GOOD A HUMAN BEING EITHER

I WOULD ONLY BE THE CAPTAIN’S SON

I WISH I COULD TELL HIM THIS, BUT I CAN’T

HE IS LONG GONE

THAT IS WHAT IS SO SAD ABOUT IT

 I’M SURE THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE LOST LOVED ONES

WITH THINGS UNSAID, WOULD KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT
