Happy Birthday
Happy is what Tom should be, 'tho for
Age there is no remedy,
Put it off, that you can do,
Play, laugh, and celebrate, too.
You know this is your special day!
Born this date in 1953
Is my man, Tom Welch, and he
Really wishes no one knew
That today he's turning 4 plus 52.
How the years fly and get away!
Dance we now with levity,
And eat and drink in gluttony!
Young or old, Tom, happy birthday to you!
