Neil sent me an e-note, this Cousin quite British,
Confirming they’re off on a jaunt
For two weeks – to Iberia – they’ve cheerily emplaned
To explore some favorite old haunt.
Pretty neat this Natal-Day-festivity, I’d say,
To sample the sun and cuisine in olde Spain.
Let’s just hope for the fun-and-games just ahead
That the Rain doth stay (Mainly) on its Plain!
Happy Birthday, Neil . . . Olé
PS:
Mayhap and perchance, for this journalistic pair,
There’s more reason than one – for cheering – right now.
As to Grandparenting status they’ve just ascended,
So let’s square and cube our “Hoo-rahs!” . . . and how!
C-O-N-G-R-A-T-U-L-A-T-I-O-N-S, (squared), Neil and Caroline.
