our family gained a new member
We all celebrated!
He was so belated
His first due date - can't remember
He was a chunker - 9.3
Ten fingers, ten toes, two knees
His folks named him Jim
He grew tall and slim
He always loved to climb trees
Jim was the kid who did tinker
with things that were on the blinker
He also did Crew
and drank Mountain Dew
A really good kid - not a stinker
Jim has a mind for computers
For problems, he's like Roto-rooter
He'll scavenge and fix
He knows all the tricks
He could revive a dead scooter
Jim loves his very first house
It came with great trees, but no mouse
He's handy, it's cozy
The neighbors aren't nosy
With upkeep, he doesn't grouse
Jimbo - a very fine son -
His birthday is on 31
He's humble and kind
He'd help hang your blinds
and clean up the mess when he's done
Every year ends on Jim's day
Forever, it will be that way
He'll shut down this year
with prob'ly a beer
and brothers or friends who should pay
The End.
Happy, happy day, Jimbo!
Happy, happy day, Jimbo!
Love from the Ballpark (and Goldberg)
