JACK AND HIS PLEDGE

When he died he made a pledge and a vow 
The florist must deliver a rose somehow 
His wife would be the one to receive this rose
So despite his death their love still grows 

Who was the man to do such a loving thing?
An entertainer who was always up for joking 
He was adored and idolised by so many 
I'm referring to the legendary Jack Benny  

Nearly fifty years now since he died and gone
Jack had comic timing that was second to none
A lovely thing for him to be remembered by
No doubt his wife Mary had a tear in her eye
