The Stay At Home Fellow Poem by Francis Duggan

With a young primary going son and daughter and a devoted wife
The stay at home fellow is content in his life
A family man content in his job one who loves his hometown
And one who never does yearn for worldly renown
He has never yearned for to travel elsewhere
For to try out his luck in the big World out there
On the street he was born in he will grow old and gray
And in the local cemetery his last remains will lay
On Saturday he plays football with the local football club
And on Sunday he has a few beers with his mates in the pub
Content to live and work where he is loved and known
Where he is referred to as one of our own
One who has never yearned to travel to lands far away
At home he feels happy and there he will stay.
