ART
(A Prodigy)
The likes of the one we honor today,
Rarely burst on the scenes---
With practiced eye and skillful hand—
Designed and built machines.
Could take the works of others,
And craft them to his will—
Or make brand-new--- where none would do—
His tests would prove his skill.
Left his mark in many fields—
That should have brought him fame—
Content to just have shown the way—
(Deserving—just the same)!
Husband—father—pal to all—
Record-breaker to the end—
Like so many I will boast—
Art Arfons was my friend!
