MY 62ND BIRTHDAY
It’s my birthday and I’m in my 62nd year
I’ve shared the laughter and the tears
I love birthdays and there’s been a lot
I love all the cake so far that I have got
I did some overseas travel in my twenties
And here are some places that I went
Whilst in Paris I visited The Louvre
Just one of the things you have to do
But, there’s one thing I thought they could improve
Clear Perspex was in front of the Mona Lisa for protection
And it was hard to see her through my reflection
They just needed to employ more security guards
Because seeing Lisa clearly was very hard
Besides that, Paris is my favourite city
The lights at night are very pretty
The first time I saw the Eiffel Tower, I was in awe
I had to take a photo of what I saw
So, I laid face down on the ground
And when I turned my head around
An amazing view of the tower was found
I could see the tower through the branches of the trees
And it looked pretty good to me
When I saw the result, my mind was blown
Now that photo is the screen saver on my phone
In 1987 I did a 45-day tour of Europe which was great
And in each country their national food we ate
We went to different restaurants here and there
And we ate some really yummy fare
In Munich we went to a large beer hall
We ate pig’s trotters and sauerkraut and that’s not all
The waitress brought us litres of beer
Soon I was in really good cheer
I noticed the band had gone for a break
So, then my chance I did take
I got on the stage and I sat on the drummer’s chair
I picked up the drumsticks that were there
The drummer shouted “nein, nein” as he ran towards me
Playing his drums was not meant to be
In Greece we had moussaka, we broke plates and we danced
They served us snails and frog’s legs in France
We also had some sangria to drink
And that is just delicious I think
Travelling in Europe and Britain, I had fun along the way
I’d really love to go overseas again one day
I would like to see more of Australia too
So many things to see and do
My life has had its ups and downs
Sometimes my smile turned into a frown
It’s been a bit of a roller coaster ride
But, along the way I have always tried
To be positive and optimistic and that really helps
I just strive to be myself
A good sense of humour is helpful too
Laughing is a great thing to do
Music is one of my favourite things
I love writing songs and I like to sing
I write heaps of poetry as well
Many stories I have to tell
There is inspiration everywhere
For my poetry which I love to share
This is just part of my story, there is so much more
I’m looking forward to what life has in store.
