Dear Sis,

Welcome to our "Over Eighty Club,
with thoughts that go astray.
They call them "Senior Moments"
and you'll have some every day.
If you meet a lifelong friend
and simply can't recall her name,
don't worry, she knows all the rules
of the "Over Eighty" game.
She knows why and its not funny,
we call everybody "Honey".
 
                                                                             love, Sis  Won hm
