One-man pocket-rocket,
powerpacked glorious scorer,
honorary Scouser,
honorary Geordie,
whoever's shirt you graced,
not just loved but adored.

Unbelievable
heart-on-sleever,
hope-filled hero
to we hopeless dreamers.

Hot-headed, skin-shredded
superstar, come what may
and I would love it, love it
if you were still here today.

Harry Gallagher

Poet, singer, songwriter, actor - there's no beginning to my talents. Working constantly and live blissfully on the North East coast I’m a poet based in the North East of England and my poems have been published all over the place.
