Happy Birthday To Me

The candles are aglow on your birthday cake, Where a wish awaits for only you to make, A cascade of confetti thrown by many a friend, Balloons and flowers, gifts and parties without end, A year filled with new smiles and never a tear, And with many heartfelt words of good cheer, Like those I have written right here on the page, A Happy Birthday to you, no matter what your age! I wrote this for Linda's (Poet Destroyer's) birthday, but I thought it was appropriate to repost this, since today is my birthday! It is always nice to share this special day with friends. And, I consider all of you to be mine! :)

a good repost. Someone else had written a similarly titled poem so I never commented on this one, thinking it was that other poem I had seen before. I think this one is new for me though and I never wished you happy birthday then. Unless i did it at a blog or something. Hope you had an awesome one.

Thank you for sharing this special day with me, Cheri! I'm glad that you like my new rose photo. I just thought it was time for a change. I wanted something more dramatic and unique, and this was what I came up with! :)

Happy belated Kelly. I do apologize for being so late my friend. But however I will be catching up on your poems very soon, so do expect to see more reviews. This was lovely to read this morning, especially the fact that its penned in a cheerful tone. Nicely conceived. Now I hope you've been keeping well : ). Big hugs.

Thank you for sharing this special day with me, Donna! I know as we age, sometimes we don't feel like celebrating our birthdays anymore. But, I think we should. Some people don't get the chance to live as long as we have, and that should be enjoyed and celebrated! :)

Thank you for sharing this special day with me, Tim! I am wishing you a belated Happy Birthday, too. I know that a day will come when I don't want to celebrate my birthday anymore. Maybe in about ten years! LOL! :)
