Two of my favorite poets celebrate a birthday this month
More then a few candles will be lit on their cake
Aging joints too soon will start to ache
A look in the mirror shows a few added pounds
Sometimes ears have to strain just to hear little sounds
The hair seems to grow a little greyer each day
Lord knows it gets harder to keep the wrinkles at bay
As we stand here beside them celebrating their cause
Let's give them both a big round of applause
Because we all know another year will be gone in the blink of an eye
Let's not waste time being sad or having a cry
Two of my favorite poets celebrate their special day in March
Happy Birthday

Thank you so much Darlene.....
LMAO...
This means I have to go to the gym twice a day
and paint my hair every month
I am already saving me money for the botox...you know????
and eat carrots every day to keep my eyes okay
But you know what...my mind is like a little schoolgirl so many times, and I don't waste any time at all...
I burried my tears too and try to smile a lot
I guess that's what keeps me young
Well...let's say...as young as possible for an oldie
Thank you soooooooooooooo much..I really enjoyed this and I will think of your words on my special day
Luv ya
, you're most welcome on march 30

I'll add my birthday wishes. They don't know (lucky them!) but I'll add those wishes. Age is a state of mind...I keep telling myself...it doesn't seep to sink in though.

What a nice poem, and an amusing reminder of what's ahead for them... still a few more birthdays to go for them, though, before they'll need a walker or a cane
Good luck in the contest, Sis
love and
Dee

I wrote this after spending the evening on the couch watching crappy tv and when I got up I could hardly make the old joints move...after hobbling into the computer I read about the new contest for March birthdays and that is what came out of the fingers onto the keyboard and then showed up on the screen......
after that I hobbled into bed and over slept this morning...after I get caught up today and sit for a while at this contraption I will see if a "happy" Happy Birthday poem can be drug out of my head...
