An Ode To My Son

Am I proud of son Scottie Naw... he's just the absolute joy of my extra long life Count my blessings must have chosen the right road to be rewarded like this If I knew what it was would write a book so others could benefit from my experience Don't think it was all that extraordinary but the result in any case is a loving soul with a kind heart one that this old dad is so appreciative of I'm grinning from ear to ear sticking out my chest in pride!
