Thomas Turns Eleven!

Our Birthday Boy stands proud and tall;

Think “Legs Eleven!” Bingo call;

Imbued now with a sense of self

He loves figures, knows their worth.

 

Since learning two and two make four,

Pragmatic, he likes to explore

Tough calculations he enjoys

He’s streets ahead of other boys!

 

He loves to read, ride on his bike

Disappearing out of sight

Around the leafy neighbourhood

At this age – freedom feels so good!

 

Some school subjects need more care

Determined, he will soon get there;

With primary school days nearly through

He’s on the verge of visions new!

 

As to what lies ahead – who knows?

There’s time to sense where the wind blows…

His knowledge grows as he advances:

His Tree of Life has many branches!
