Funny 50th Birthday Poem


A funny 50th birthday poem is a thoughtful way to let someone know that just because their youth is long gone, the laughs aren’t over yet. With these poems, we can all enjoy a good laugh at their expense.

Here is a funny 50th birthday poem which implies that, despite appearances to the contrary, there may be some advantages associated with being half a century old.

Ready Or Not
By Tom Mulhern

It’s your birthday, the big 5-0
Though part of you may want to say it ain’t so

Without hardly trying, you’ve turned a new page
Like it or not, it’s now middle age

But middle age is not such a bad place to be
From youthful indiscretions you’ve been set free

Now you’ll finally get to find out
What middle-aged indiscretions are all about.

This next poem provides you with a brief rhyming excuse for not showing up with something of value for your friend or loved one’s 50th birthday.

In Case You Were Wondering
By Tom Mulhern

Fifty
Is nifty
But you’ve been shifty
So this year
No gifty.

The 50th birthday poem that follows highlights what is perhaps the one unavoidable consequence of turning 50 in the United States. Come to think of it, this phenomenon could well be global (if it isn’t now, it’s just a matter of time).

Death, Taxes and Letters in the Mail
By Tom Mulhern

Turning fifty isn’t so bad
I’m not upset and I won’t get mad
In fact the only thing that bothers me
Are those membership offers from AARP

No collection of happy 50th birthday poems would be complete without an adjusted set of words for the traditional “Happy Birthday” song. If you’re not familiar with the tune, ask the nearest American to sing it for you. It's a requirement of citizenship.

Happy Birthday To You At 50
By Tom Mulhern

Happy Birthday to you
You’re fifty it’s true
It’s only a number
(And a pretty big one too)
