Happy Birthday To The Young At Heart

Happy Birthday To  The Young AT Heart

By Paul McCann

Now that you've turned young again
here's a small list to put on the fridge.

Pay all the bills you forgot

and borrow more against the mortgage .

Remind yourself you're young again
even if they don't understand.

There’s  always someone out there

who is willing to lend you a hand.

The world expects too much from you

so keep everything that you own.

You’ve worked too hard for all you have
and the bank tells you it a loan .

It's ok to get sick of others

when they say you’re getting old.

You don't own them anything  

so leave their comments out in the cold.

Youngsters like you are allowed to

sleep standing up inside their head

You don’t need to be reminded to

sit down to eat being fed .

Because you’re young again,
there are days when you need to have a say  

Just in case you forget the words

and loose the message on the way   .
