Thomas Turns Nine!

Thumbs up from Thomas who hits nine

Occasioning a brand-new rhyme;

Long-legged lad, who grows apace

Confident with smiling face!

 

In scouting uniform, he stands

Competent, skilled with his hands;

My nephew shares his birthday date

With Elvis Presley*, all-time great!

 

But I should admit one thing

I have never heard him sing!

Smart Thomas loves the numbers game

Calculus - his middle name!

 

Too soon to think of a career;

His mental acumen is clear

He’s fascinated by finance;

This knowledge will his life enhance!
