HAPPY 70TH BIRTHDAY, MUKILTEO!
May 8, 2017
You’re 70 now.
Yes, I’ve heard the news,
And I see on your face
Signs of “the birthday blues.”
Your year count is long,
But don’t be depressed.
This makes you a leader –
Far ahead of the rest!
So 70 years are really quite few.
There’s many a tree older than you.
Mountains and rivers and dirt
All are too.
Happy Birthday, young one!
