Living to be eighty
Takes health and love galore.
But living to be ninety
Takes a heck of a lot more.

So what’s the magic secret?
What’s longevity based upon?
Ask a host of a octogenarians
They’ll describe a marathon.

Life’s a race to finish –
And your run has highs and lows,
But if you’re extra blessed, then
You’ll have more friends than foes.
So keep on track and step up
To the line every single day.
And if you’re blessed as this guy is,
You’ll be 80 pushing 90 someday!
Happy 80th Birthday, Bob.
It’s been a great race so far.
Ninety — here we come!
Keep smilin’ – wherever you are!!
