Reuben had a brother,
A little boy named Seth,
They would grow together,
Savouring every breath.
Their lives would grow in sunlight,
So full of light and joys,
As the love of mum and dad,
Was ever with the boys.
Each day an adventure,
Throughout their wondrous lives,
Wonder all around them,
As joy about them thrives.
I wish you both a long, long life,
In the life that you will know,
Knowing that love will be there,
Along every step you go.

Lucky Reuben has a younger brother,
How they'll laugh and play with one another,
He and Seth will Surely look up,
When they're standing tall and fully grown up.
To the cleverest dad and most wonderful mother.
