Happy 21st

Today is the day you turn twenty one!
You've gone pretty far, but it's only begun!

Education, Employment and Friends and Love too???
Oh my, what wonders lie ahead for you.

Be sensible in your venture, known as your life,
especially in love, as it cuts like a knife!

Be honest and loving in all that you do,
and watch very closely as it comes back to you!!!

What goes around comes around, my Mom used to say,
so remember what you do to others will happen to you one day.

Keep strong in life as it will surely take its toll,
and always remember your life long goal.

Put yourself first always. You are your own best friend.
You're the only one who'll be with yourself until the very end!!!

Be good and true and always do the best you can do,
and you'll be please to see what life has in store for you!!!

HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY!!!!!
