Ode to the Elderly

Oh I am just a little one.
I'm glad my life has just begun.
The fire of youth flows through my veins.
I don't have old folks' aches and pains.

Today I'm sad about old folks
And I've stopped telling old age jokes.
I've just found out it's hard to see
A relative that's elderly.

My Grandpa's getting old and gray.
Today he's having his birthday.
My Grandpa's quite a nifty one,
Especially since he's FIFTY-ONE!

Happy Birthday Grandpa!
Here's some pictures of us over the last year or so!

What wonderful pictures of you with your Grandpa. You are lucky. Just so you know, I think he missed you when he came for a visit to Vancouver Island.

Happy Birthday Marv!!
