Notes About The Poem

Written on 3/9/23 for my grandaughter's birthday.

Hannah's Eighteenth Birthday

Lovely young woman,
Full of charm and wonder,
Your life lies before you,
Plans and dreams to ponder.

No longer a child,
Today you're eighteen,
And what you'll become,
Remains to be seen.

The whole world is yours,
With opportunities galore.
Spread your wings and fly,
There's so much to explore!
