Proud As A Peacock

My son Scottie and me Are like two peas in a pod The word “clone” comes to mind His humour is the same His carefree look at life matches mine There is no mistaking Scottie boy is my son He's also inherited my creative genes Following in his Daddy's footsteps A techie version of his old man Did I mention I'm proud of my Scottie Does a bear poop in the woods Of course I'm proud as a peacock I love this boy (man)! Now in his middle sixties and a VP But he will always be my boy!
