For the Birthday Girl

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 wish you the happiest of birthdays, Linda! :) Written by: Kelly Deschler For Poet Destroyer's "Birthday Girl" contest. (Yet, I meant every word of it!)
