Birthday

All the  swallows  are  singing  a  blithe  chorus, 
For  this  is a  special  day  and  the’re  sclerous, 
Ushering  in a  new leaf  of  nature’s  eden, 
Indeed  it  is  a  special  day for  a  special person. 

Like  the  sun  and  moon, 
This  day  ends  but  only  for  a  new  to  begin, 
Like  the  four seasons  roar, 
This  day  passes  away  only  to  return  once  more. 

Close  your  alluring  eyes  and  make  a wish, 
Award  it  with  wings and  let  it  fly  with  swish, 
Vastly  beyond  the  highest  mountain top, 
Up  into  the  clear  blue  skies  that  lop. 

Now  blow  out  your  candles’  beret,   
We do  not  need  to  count  those  candles  today, 
Let’s  just  bask in the  lovely  glow  they make, 
For  you deserve  the  sweetest  cake.


Happy Birthday.
