Happy Birthday Friend

A little birdie tells me
This is a special day,
So I'd just like to send
A gem or two your way.

I think I'll choose a Sapphire
To emphasize the sky,
And then I'll choose an Emerald
For grass on which to lie.

Then I'll choose the Topaz
To be the  morning sun,
And save the radient Ruby
For when the day is done.

I've saved the purest Diamond
To give to you today,
Because God has chosen
This for Your special day.
