CONGRATULATIONS SEXAGENARIAN ROB!
Birthdays come but once a year.
That's the reason we are here.
To celebrate Rob's big day,
Patti planned it, by the way.
But did our big pussy cat
Leave behind his yellow hat?
It disguises lack of hair
And hides the tufts and what's bare.
Without it he is not complete.
That other inch makes him six feet.
He's having fun; watch him grin
With his friends and all his kin.
Now Ollie thinks he can talk;
He'll tell Rob it's time to walk.
Must not forget to take the scoop.
He will most likely need to poop
Just where the grandkids love to play.
A fresh pile will spoil Resse's day.
First, do attend to the fire
Make the flames slightly higher
But Rob has mislaid the stoking tool
(Just another sixty-year-old fool!)
"They are some of the joys of life,"
Reminds Patti, his lovely wife.
Enjoy your special birthday
And many more in future.
Let's all give Rob one loud cheer
While he downs his large, cold beer.
