Nae, kiddin mugs…

Fifty marching bands to Wake me up

Eight Cider’s before eight bells

Today is really just that

Well I for one never gave it much thought

That getting to this stage of the game

Is a bit rich of me if I must say!

But!!

A bit of an achievement I must say so

Kind of a cheek some might say ha ha ha

Of all the gifts so far the best a wee text

An message from my eldest Grandson [18 PAST]

Achievement well I never thought I’d see that day.

……….

They say each one of us has a reason

Say that each of us has a calling too

To be is to steal a phrase just to be

Be that better person just be you

Is all I aim to do be me

A rhyme in a riddle for us

Reason life’s more than them?

……

That is my opinion

Reason once was treason

Your word your Honor

Choice truth.

    Being me is hard enough,Matt, but I would dread being someone else even more.

    Some people are themselves- they are naturally deceitful.
