Kay's Birthday Poem

Yanto Kay Yanto
You Are Not That Old!
(your wrinkled skin sags spotted with age)

Yanto Kay Yanto
You Are Not That Old!
(The Music's not loud turn down your hearing aid)

Yanto Kay Yanto
You Are Not That Old!
(when in bed your dentures sleep in a cup)

Yanto Kay Yanto
You Are Not That Old!
(forget stray pets the children now bring home sweethearts)

Yanto Kay Yanto
You Are Not That Old!
(say bye bye high heels & hi to slippers & cane)

Yanto Kay Yanto
You Are Not That Old!
(what grey hair its all gone snow white)

Yanto Kay Yanto
You Are Not That Old!
(you talk of doctors and diets instead of hot dinner dates)

Yanto Kay Yanto
You Are Not That Old!
(I remember you as a damp dipered baby so I know I'm right)

Yanto Kay Yanto
You Are Not That Old!
as a child you wished to be old enough  to do as your elders did
(Isn't it great that some wishes do come true)

Yantok Kay Yantok 
You Are NOW That Old Kay !
You are Now
