Didn't Croak

Didn't Do
Letter of missing the boat
My boat was based on the list
List of things I hadn't done
I did them all, I'm still here
You were with me all the time
They were saying we're "like twins
Joined at the hip, used his list"
Now we must each make our own
We didn't croak pity us
Theres not much to look for now
82 countries I've been
Raised five children countless grands
Getting to be time to croak
Perhaps I will this summer
To you Happy Summerween
I'm the older, love you more

Such a fine journey, Jim. You have been blessed.
Looks like a wonderful family, Jim! You will leave a wonderful legacy. But so glad you 'didn't croak.'
A life well-lived, Jim.
I hope you don't croak just yet! But am pleased you created a good life for yourself and your family - Jae
A blessed life indeed.
I'm glad you didn't miss out on anything you wanted to do. Life is to experience, I do believe. Is there some hurry to leave? Please don't croak until you actually want to.
"I'm the older, love you more"--joined at the hip or not, there's a sense of playful rivalry that may continue whichever side of the divide you are on, separate lists or not. But, wow! What a life! May it continue for a long time.
Joined at the hip and still in love....that's a success story.
happy for you....!!
