All tuckered out is my demise. Yet it comes as no surprise... 'cause I been moviin' and I been groovin' for eighty six years. I been up hill... and I been down hill and all around the town. But things ain't like they used to be since parts wear down in the old body. Now I have to learn to keep it sliow which ever way I may want to go. Yet I'm having fun in the sun bare footin' on Cape Cod, Vacation Land USA. Now;s the time to spread good cheer to people I love both far and near. If I don't have strength to help in any way I can always pray and hope to make their day.

Your witty poems "make my day" every time I read one. I'd bat for 100 if I were you. 86 is too low.

And you do that completely, John, when you compose such wonderful pieces of poetry such as this. You are ten years ahead of me in years, and I can only hope to be half as entertaining when I approach that number.

Glasses held high . . . Skol . . .

Love the layout of the poem, looks like a container (vase?). Dianne and I find you, as well as your writing, a real gift, and we thank you for sharing!
