Another year has just flown by, I can't stop them if I try

 Look at me,I'm Eighty three

 

 

 

 

 


 

Now here I am at eighty two

I'm still smiling on Gather with you

 


 

 


 

 

 

 

Of course can't forget eighty one

That year really had some fun

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I came here as you all know

When I was eighty, Alone at Eighty tells you so

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I told my son I was doing this, showing my new picture

He said Ma, put up the one in your bathing suit

Cause that one really fits ya,

You are so beautiful, and so I understand why you smile.

You are a loyal friend, and so it follows that you have a huge number of admirers, and lifelong friends.

You are a woman of great faith, and so I know that you are favored with great wisdom, inner peace, joy, and an eternal spring of hope.

So once again, my friend, I wish you a happy birthday, as well as many happy returns!

So many friends have come to say
Their very own happy birthday way
A poem, a memory, a word, a greeting
The love lives stong, though time is fleeting!
Life is about the love we have
And in turn the love we gave
And you gave your heart
Right from the start
And the love keeps returning to you!
Happy birthday Elsie!
Elsie Duggan Nov 2, 2009, 1:12am EST
Thank you Barbara, love the poem and the sentiments, and I do believe them to be true, had a wonderful day today
