Stay Forever Old

Stay forever old, with all due respect. 
You're tallied up years, like trophies, collect. 

Stay forever aged as the sharpest cheese.
Give samples of wisdom and expertise. 

Stay forever known with greatest revere, 
like your hometown's very first pioneer. 

Stay forever classic as Model T. 
Polish and showcase your timeless beauty. 

Stay forever platinum, highlights galore. 
Have a happy birthday and many more!
