#octogenarian
Talia Shire has become an octogenarian today.
She's a talented lady, that's what I want to convey.
She's starred in movies and TV shows.
Talia Shire was born eighty years ago.
She has three children and she has been married twice.
When I say that she has plenty of fans, I'm being precise.
She starred in five Rocky movies and many other films as well.
When it came to being a successful actress, Talia did not fail.
When she starred in 'The Landlady', people got to see an evil version of Talia Shire.
She is a very special and wonderful woman who millions of people love and admire.

Phileas Fogg,
On a brigantine sledge,
Braved the Omaha wind
As it twirled.
So, Jules Verne might say
That a full eighty days
Is plenty to travel the world.
Amelia Earhart
Crossed the sea –
The quickliest feat
…For a girl –
In twelve hundred forty
Short minutes, you know:
Others failed, but gave it a whirl.
Rosemary Doyle,
Our wonderful mum,
Exceeded these
Feats of grand scale!
She has crossed oceans faster,
Breezed over Great Plains,
And – without perspiration – prevailed!
Carefully, casually,
She raised five kids:
‘Neath our burden
She never collapsed.
Loving and giving
Us lives we are living.
Have there – really – eight decades elapsed?
Octogenarian?
Silliest word:
It sounds like
A sea creature’s vet,
But if you want true fun,
Then just orbit the sun
Eighty times, like our mom: It’s no sweat!
