"BRYAN"

Hi folks, this is Two Texas PawPaw and this morning I'm going to talk about my grandson, His name is Bryan and I wrote a poem for him on his 21st birthday. That was five years ago and a lot has happened since then and I might add, it's all been good. He is married now, a complete about face from his early intentions, to a very sweet girl named Mandy and she is a real gem. The poem I wrote for him goes like this-----HE'S BEEN AROUND FOR SEVERAL YEARS, AND HIS NAME IS BRYAN---HIS GRANDMA JO THINKS HE IS COOL AND SWEET AS A GLASS OF GOOD WINE---HE WORKS WITH DAD IN A BIG BLACK TRUCK, AND HE'S AN ONLY SON---HE'S ABOUT TO START A BRAND NEW JOURNEY, HE'S TURNING TWENTYONE---HE CLAIMS HE'LL BE A BACHELOR, HAS NO DESIRE TO BE A GROOM---THE CLOSEST HE GETS TO ANY GIRL IS CHASING HER AROUND THE ROOM---I'VE HEARD THAT BACHELOR THING BEFORE, IT HAS A FAMILIAR RING---MANY, MANY YEARS AGO, HIS DAD SAID THE SAME DARN THING---WE LABEL HIM THE "NEW KID IN TOWN", HE'LL BE THE FIRST TO TELL YOU---NOW HE CAN DO LOTS OF THINGS, THAT BEFORE, HE COULDN'T DO---HE BOUGHT HIMSELF A HOUSE AWHILE BACK, MOVED AWAY FROM MOM AND DAD---HE GOT HIMSELF A ROOM MATE AND MADE HIM A BACHELOR PAD---HE'S NOT MUCH FOR COOKING, NOR EATING OUT ALONE---AND WHEN HE WANTS A GOOD MEAL, HE KNOWS THAT MOM'S AT HOME---HE SELDOM EVER GETS IN TROUBLE, THIS WE DO NOT DOUBT---HE KNOWS IF HE GETS OUT OF LINE, DAD'S GONNA FIND IT OUT---SO HERE'S TO GRANDSON BRYAN, AN ADULT HE WILL BE---AND NO ONE COULD BE PROUDER THAN HIS GRANDMA JO AND ME---AND HE SHOULD KNOW THAT WHEN HE'S OUT, AND HE SHOULD EVER PASS US---AND THERE IS ANYTHING HE NEEDS, ALL HE HAS TO DO IS ASK US-----Bryan has his own business now called MAC SUPPLY in Pampa, Texas. Its an electrical business and I must say, quiet successful. I'm very proud to call him "My Grandson". This is Two Texas PawPaw, signing off, and, the good Lord willing and the creeks don't rise, I'll be back tomorrow.
