Black Fifty, Most Nifty

We raise our glasses while waving the black flag
to friends sailing through the mid-century drag.
When embracing Kathy and Ginny
we will concede to know the skinny
since passions rise steady while body parts sag.

Got a chuckle out of this one. I passed the mid-century mark myself so I can relate to the parts that sag. Glad you have a sense of humor. Thank you for your kind comment. Karen
