Sip something to long life
Be better today no need for strife

Premium Member A Long Life

He’s lived a long life;
Now his days are short.
So he's slowed down,
Yet, time flies by
Even faster.

Until There Was You

I never knew love until there was you,I never knew pain until we were through,I never knew just how long life was until I had to learn to live without your love.

Weakness

Weakness in history
is greatest strength
that destroys the strong
Grow it and you are gone
Avoid it and long life
you will live and live
till cows come home

Goodbye My Friend

As we lay you down to rest,you were a good guy,one of the best! My drinking buddy,my long life friend,we were friends from the beginning,and untill this sad end..

Eat Grass

If you want long life
eat grass as cows
eat herbs as goats
eat fruits as bats
be mobile as wind
But why need long life?
gates of heaven may close
before your arrival

Symbolizes long life,
Specialty of each wife;
Sauce--so meaty to drool,
Satiates and makes us full!
So flavorful in sight,
Super Christmas delight,
Sumptuous meal’s highlight.
