A Real Keeper

... dedicated to my devlish 10 year old grandson! There's only one way to describe me Can't wipe off this silly ole grin A ravishing beauty I've turned out to be With such gorgeous baby soft skin With a face of unmatched perfection Like Clooney and Pitt into one Movie star stuff, there's really no doubt Pure awesomeness second to none It may seem a trifle bit pompous of me But I'm such a ravishing hunk Sorry but I can't even stand it myself Pay no attention to the tabloid junk I try to lead this exemplary life In spite of this girlie adoration A lesser person would certainly succumb Causing a large brain inflation Inside I'm really quite a nice young lad You just need to delve a bit deeper My surface beauty will surely distract you But most say I'm a real keeper! © Jack Ellison 2012
