Ode to Mom at 79

This was actually done for her birthday 31 Jan 2009 (1930 was the first!)

Ode to Mom at 79

I hope this does NOT bomb;
This is an Ode to my Mom

Today she will be 79
Aging like fine wine

In her all her family Delight
Yes, we Know that is right!

She is really not getting old
She is just turning into Gold

Really Mom it is NOT that weighty
After all you could be turning 80!

unlike

The poor benighted Hindu.
who does the best he kin do.
who sticks to his cast from first to last,
And for pants makes his skin do.

She is clothed in God's Righteousness

My blessed Mom is one who
Trusts in God Who really can do
She is a child of God from first to last
Jesus is much better than a Hindu

Mom be blessed and have Fun
says your oldest son!

Love, Richard
