You make ‘seventy’ sound like laughter when pushed high upon a swing.
You make ‘seventy’ look like fashion with your style and your bling.
You make ‘seventy’ feel like ’seven’ on the pavement skipping rope.
You make ‘seventy’ taste like ice cream in a sundae topped with hope.
With kindness and compassion. With grace and a will of steel.
You are always helping others with your endless supply of zeal.
You make ‘seventy’ smell like roses on a bush in Grandma’s yard.
You make ‘seventy’ look like famous in this life where you have starred.
You make ‘seventy’ feel like unity for all those you connect.
You make ‘seventy’ taste like sugar sweet with love and our respect.
With kindness and compassion. With grace and a will of steel.
Thank you for helping others with your endless supply of zeal.
