Happy 30th Birthday to Best Friend

Monday, June 29th, 2009

We were little girls at kindergarten

Not that long ago

Now here you are grown up and gorgeous

Turning  the big Three-O

Through thick and thin we’ve been together

You’re my forever friend

We’ll keep on dancing, shopping, clubbing, dining

‘Til the very end

We used to eat at Bennigans

Now Nobu is our style

But the blast we had that summer in France

Really makes me smile

On this incredible milestone

We wish you the best life can bring

Thanks everybody for sharing

‘Cause without love it don’t mean a thing

Poem To My Therapist

Sunday, June 28th, 2009

How privileged I’ve been

To have a therapist like you

There’s no one who comes close

I ought to know, I’ve tried a few

I’m very sad you’re leaving

You can never be replaced

And I’m so greatful for your help

With problems I have faced

I’ll remember all you taught me

When life puts me to the test

And in spite of the loss I’m feeling

I wish you the very best

You’re invited to a most unusual

Nontraditional affair

At the Museum of Natural History

In Wilmington, Delaware

Annie Gould and Adam Chung

Are tying the knot!  Can’t wait!

So please get out your calendar

And be sure to save the date

Happy 60th Birthday

Saturday, June 27th, 2009

What a thrill to see you here
Celebrating your big Six-O
After the drama at Monument Mountain
We had our doubts, you know

You turned a putrid shade of green
You couldn’t breathe, what a fright
Turned out not to be a heart attack
Just a wussy fear of heights

When I was barely 30
I nearly knocked you out cold
I was showing off my new grown-up look
And you told me I looked OLD!

Seriously, thanks for the memories
We’ve done everything with such style
Like getting wasted at Nippers
When we went to the Virgin Isles

You waltzed wobbly Janet around on the beach
A sight I’ll never forget
So young and foolish under the stars
That’s as good as it gets

We’ve been through thick and thin together
Sharing happiness and strife
Births, Bar Mitzvahs, weddings, grandkids
We’re truly bonded for life

What do we wish for you, dear friend?
A joint to smoke each night
You and Janet mean the world to us
Hope this decade treats you right!

Happy Anniversary Tribute

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Your anniversary passed

But we can explain

Life in the boonies

Has made us insane

The cat ate the card

No we can’t use that

You know darned well

We don’t have a cat

How about this

Our phone was out of order

Or would you believe

We were South of the border?

Wait, we ate a tomato

And turned chartreuse

Forget it, dear friends

There’s just no excuse

So we’re coming clean

Here’s our explanation

In Smithtown we’re mired

In disorganization

The calendar never is

In the same place

Occasions are missed

It’s a total disgrace

Hope you’ll forgive us

For being remiss

Here’s wishing you years

Of wedded bliss

50th Birthday Tribute

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Having a major birthday

Shakes people up, somehow

But relax.  I checked.  It’s official

50′s the new 40 now

Whew!  You can still be a hot young chick

So smart and funny, too

And we’ll always do breakfast after gyno exams

Comparing the gross things they do

You’re MVBF, close as family

Girl,  you’re the cream of the crop

We’ll keep meeting for sinful lunches

Savoring every drop

Poem About Private Jets

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

A private jet is not just for the wealthy!

Did you know?

You and your friends can charter one

Without a lot of dough.

Often private jets won’t even

Cost more than first class

So when you get the opportunity

Never let it pass

These days commercial airlines are a hassle.

Not much fun

You have to go through torture

Before the flight’s begun

They want you at the airport early

Just to wait around

Yearning for a private jet

To take you where you’re bound

Going through security is a nightmare,

This is true

You’re treated like a criminal

And could be strip searched, too

Once you board the plane

Don’t look for meals or magazines

No roomy seats.

You get scrunched in with strangers, like sardines

You snooze and dream of private jets,

Praying nature doesn’t call

Going in the tiny loo

Is the worst experience of all

A passenger beside you loudly snores

And passes gas

Your jangled nerves are on the verge

Of shattering like glass

The whole adventure leaves you looking haggard

Drained and old

Next time you’ll use a private jet

If you have to sell your soul

In a private jet you’ll travel

In the lap of luxury

Every whim attended to

Like you’re royalty

The seats are soft and comfy

Plush beyond compare

You’re wined and dined on haute cuisine

Prepared with utmost care

You’ll never have to worry

That your luggage might get lost

The peace of mind you pay for

Is cheap at twice the cost.

Chartering a private jet

Lets you choose your time to fly

No schedules to adhere to,

No hours of standing by

There are few major airports

Close to exotic isles

But a private jet can always find a runway

Wwthin a mile

Check out some charter brokers

Who’ll rent you a private jet

It’s cheaper than you think

To take a flight you won’t regret!

18th Birthday Tribute

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

I’ll never forget the day you were born

I was drawn to you from the start

It was wonderful living in the same house

Where you grabbed a hold of my heart

I told you crazy stories

Made up wacky games to play

Cared for you and taught you stuff

And we’re bonded to this day

The years flew by and here you are

Suddenly eighteen

With a magnetic personality

And the looks of a beauty queen

Everybody loves you

So sensitive, kind and funny

My niece, my friend, my “baby sister”

My beloved and special honey

As you move toward graduation

Here’s my fervent wish for you

May you be fulfilled and happy

In whatever you pursue

Time for our Second Annual Soup Party

Like the one we threw last year

We’re planning a terrific night

So please make sure you’re here


Good food and drinks plus lots of laughs

Teacher Tribute

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

Dear Mrs. Gillis,


You took a handful of geezers

In various stages of decay

And with love and skillful guidance

You helped us each write a play


How talented you made us feel

At our age when triumphs are few

We’ve been floating around on a high for days

All because of you !!!


Thank you from your devoted students,
