Captain Luca
Captain Luca
By Jan Beaumont
Some of us are lucky to have grandsons
Those little boys who make your heart just burst
If I'd known just how much joy I'd find in grandkids
I'd have surely found a way to have them first!
A father-son relationship is special
Its lovely seeing dads with their wee boys
They learn so much from spending time together
That companionship is much more fun than toys.
My grandson's an amazing little fellow
His imagination's wildly off the chart
He knows exactly what he plans on doing
He's six years old but knew it from the start.
He has no plans to be a firefighter
No policeman, racecar driver or mechanic
For he knows just where his destiny will take him
He's going to be the Captain of Titanic!
He knows about the iceberg and what happened
He's quite aware it didn’t end so well
He wants to raise it from Atlantic's seabed
And after that, well only time will tell!
He's planning to get married to his girlfriend
He says he'll call his children 'Jack' and 'Rose'
His wife will watch the wee ones while he's 'busy on the ship'
But just where they will sail to, heaven knows!
I'm sure his plans will change as he gets older
But his future will be brilliant I am sure
For Captain Luca has a great ambition
And long may all his hopes and dreams endure!
