My brother-in-law Ben
Lives in a far-off land
They still have birthdays there
Or so I understand!
And so, although he’s far away,
This poem to him I send,
With a few kind words
To spotlight Doctor Ben.
Ben – he has a way
Of making people feel
Like they are truly great
And have his friendship’s seal.
He also had an eye
For women of great worth
For him to capture Becki’s heart
Makes him of noble birth!
And, on those days of gloom,
When boredom strikes again
Find our birthday boy
For a “portable party” is Ben.
And he loves his folks,
His sisters and his brothers.
They know that he’d live closer
If he but had his ‘druthers’.
And now that he’s a father
With two boys – Oh so cute!
His chest sticks out with pride
Their praise, he proudly toots!
Oh Ben! Our family’s lucky
To have you in the pack.
And when the army lets you go
We’ll gladly take you back!
