Jay Is a Good Son

J-ay is a good son, 
A-lways respecful of elder; 
Y-earning to gladly obey, 
S-ubmitting to his father.
O-n May twenty-third morn, although it's his birthday; 
N-ever will the parent be dismayed by son Jay.

O-ne good son is Jay, 
C-ourteously responding to his mother; 
H-e politely follows her, 
A-lthough the clime gets viler.
V-ery civil and well-bred, the kid shall become better man; 
E-ven though other children rebel, Jay is indeed a good son.
