A day early, but i'm busy tomorrow. Hope nobody can identify with this - which is written with just a little poetic licence.

A MAN OF MANY PARTS

My birth certificate says 78 today,
I,ll call it seventy two;
A lot you see, isn't really me,
Some parts are fairly new..

The Lord decreed three score and ten,
I,m out of guarantee;
Replacements keep me going,
Plus an annual M.O.T.

The tooth fairy took all my teeth,
Outlook pretty Grimm;
I keep the replacemnets in a glass -
Fairies fly - but never swim.

Without specs I,d needs a guide dog,
Have a four wheeled walking frame;
Beethoven type of deafness,
Pre hearing aid, the same.

Yes,I've falsies in my chest,
But they're tiny bye-pass tubes;
Wrong what you were thinking,
Au naturel - mens boobs!

Silicone though is in my knees,
New hips? - I'll soon apply;
Then to chase the girls again,
Please remind me as to why.

Hoping soon my years are up,
And no, I don't mean heaven;
Thinking forward to the day,
Seven and eight is eight and seven.

.................................
Happy days
