Dinner at the Berri Club

Every Thursday night
Mum and dad catch a taxi cab
To the Berri Club for dinner
With their good friends
It has become a habit
A weekly exercise
A very important part
Of their elderly lives
They get ready to go out
They get dressed up 
They have a great time
Eat a meal out
Have a drink or two
Catch up with the gossip
Talk about their days
The check up at the doctors
The visit to the specialist
The long tiring days
How they spent the weekend
Who they saw and yes
Who has passed away
Birthdays and death-days
The usual kind of things
That good friends talk about
When ever they meet up!
