Another year older, your bones are starting to creak,
Don't you worry, you will be a beautiful antique.
Your once shiny mane will turn a brilliant silver grey,
You'll get new hearing aids so you can hear what others say.
The skin on the back of your knees will begin to wilt,
On the upside now days you can get your joints rebuilt.
Eyesight ain't what it was when you were young,
Don't be sad just because your spring has sprung.
I'm just yappin I hope you know, I say all these things in jest,
I want to wish you a Happy Birthday cuz partners you're the best.

Hey, that's not fair! It looks like you wrote this birthday poem from a photo of me! I may have to sue.
I'm rapidly closing in on a milestone, big number 50 and I'm clawing and biting, resisting all the way!
Fun poem, I like humor.

Don't take any of it back, Barb... the voice of experience here... and they're all in for it, just wait and see Lol.
This is funny, and a cute birthday poem
So... you and Darlene thought you'd get to split the bounty between ya, huh. Well, I have my two cents worth in now ao it'll at leasr be a three way split unless some of the other partners decide to party with us.
