--
Nineteen fifty one year of birth
very much down to earth.
Breazy seaside town Methil, Fife
a miners cottage, poverty rife.
Delivering papers, milk,
customers often bilk.
Windows cleaned potatoes picked
his father quite stricked.
Half the money his father took
not much for Jacks bank
Watercolours a girlfriend brought
painting, Jack self taught.
Jack copying Monet's poppy field
artistic talent revealed.
Portfolio rejected at art university
a little more adversity.
At the Royal Scottish Academy
two paintings sold with alacrity.
This Scottish talent on his way
his paintings somewhat risqué.
