Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday! Marks each year We all clink glasses To a friend's new year Toasts are read Loads of good cheer All in honor of The coming year Behind the scenes It's time to reflect The good, preserve The bad reject Blow out the candles Eat the cake... Promises to keep Decisions to make

I am coming up to this myself, deciding on my cake colors. I shall paint the top and promise myself something wonderful.

Ah, I remember: You are a Gemini. Am I remembering correctly? Happy upcoming 29th birthday, my dear. Best wishes, Gershon

"The good, preserve/The bad reject"-- Sage advice!

Glad you like it... I need to take the advice for myself soon, as I have another 39th birthday coming up! A very merry unbirthday to you too... :) gw
