FRANK FOLEY

FRANK FOLEY

I am not a religious man or considered holy
However thank you God for a man named Frank Foley
A modern day saint during World War Two
Took it upon himself to rescue every Jew

He was a passport officer who bent the rules
Considered that Hitler and his cronies were utter fools
He turned a blind eye to all red tape
Helping Jewish families to flee and escape

I wish people today were just like Frank
Someone we should be grateful for and to thank

Dear Kieran,

An unsung hero
This great man named Frank
His name should be remembered
For all Jews to thank

Peace and Love,
