   The joy and laughter, the times we've won?
   
   Eight decades have treated you well,
   Through 80 years, stories to tell.

4. His Eightieth Birthday
   Poet: Mrs. C. K. Smith
   
   I note the silver halo
   About the dear one's head,
   I note the voice so mellow
   In all that he has said.
   
   His ripened visage tells me
   He has not lived in vain,
   However strong the ills be,
   He never does complain!
   
   Though physically aged.
   His spirit always young,
   He leaves no things engaged in
   With head, or hand, or tongue,
   
   He's growing old gracefully
   No, no, he is not old
   He stands upright as ever
   And walks as straight and bold.
   
   The cheerful never do grow old.
   They only seem more ripe;
   This is a tale that is twice told.
   But never old or trite!
