I'm Tootin' My Own Horn

It's my birthday, and I'm tootin' my own horn,
Proud to be 50, not sad or forelorn.
A well rounded number, it is my golden year,
With love in my heart, I feel of good cheer.
With the love of my life, and so many good friends,
I hope this happiness, never ends.
I thought I would dread, this ripe old age,
But I feel young again, as I take the stage.
The stage of life, with a renewed hope,
All that comes my way, I will surely cope.
So I'm tootin' my horn, on this wonderful day,
I'm going to do all I can, I'm doing it my way.

Toot, Toot...Happy birthday my dear friend..

Great poem..

Welcome to the 50's, I wish I were 20 again, and know what I know now, oh boy....the 50 suck, and I am in great shape, just like being young, what can I say, I am a vain *****...but I make the most of my golden years...lol

Thank you so much Rhonda...I don't feel one bit old...and have been told I don't look my age. So that's a good thing.

Thanks Italy...look above...50 to me is just another number...I don't feel it one bit. Wait, is that arthur calling me??

I put my past behind me Brenda and I am going to live life like I'm dying now. It feels good to be alive now. Thanks and you will find those words I believe.

good for you robert and thanks...but nope i lost my thesaurus

Well Happy Birthday Robert! *finds a horn from an old model A* ooooga ooooga

Thanks Spirit...I hear that horn now...thanks for the wishes

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

You're very welcome Robert. Now if only I could find some candles. *orders some candles from ACME, delivered by the coyote*

Thank you very much Shaden. I appreciate the wishes.

You better call the Fire Dept before those candles get here and warn them.

Happy Birthday Robert!

Thank you Sherrie...glad to see you again.

ROFL I was promised that they are perfectly harmless Robert. The coyote described then as being very sparkly. He also said they're a great addition to a birthday cake...actually I think he said that they were dynamite for birthday cakes. Well, sounded good to me anyway.

happy birthday my friend
nice to see the will to things your way

my question is, is that the Sinatra way or the Elvis version

Thanks KC...I'm kinda partial to the Elvis version myself.

oh man, nobody does it like the chairman of the board…
