Grandsons

Oscar is intelligent
And very sensible too
In a difficult situation
He knows what to do

Even though he worries
When things get out of hand
It's only when things seem wrong to him
That he doesn't understand

He is too young to know
The ins and outs of life
And sometimes his caring ways
Cause Oscar lots of strife

He is keen to learn
And is extremely good at sport
He is very witty
And quick with a retort

He is a good swimmer
And a scuba diver too
Interested in nature
And going to the zoo

He loves to travel
He's a fortunate lad
Travelling to foreign places
With his brother, Mum and Dad

Oscar has many friends
Who goes with him to a gym
We are very proud to have a grandson
Just like him

Oscar is now 16; I wrote this a few years ago; he is growing up to be a fine young man and is very good at playing the guitar. He is a fortunate young man as both my son Mike and my daughter-in-law, Belinda, has PhDs and Oscar and his brother Banjo go to private school and have opportunities that other children don't have, Banjo is 12 and plays the drums.
