Happy Birthday Mom

Have you ever felt the soft breeze?
Have you sensed its sweet caress?
I have felt a touch
That’s even softer than the silk’s latch…

Yet, it lies hidden within
A single person’s skin
A person whose love rushes through
My blood and soul’s stew…

I treasure that person so much
That I can’t describe how much
I ponder at her eye’s gaze
For it carries wisdom and profession
through every phase…

You are my treasure
For you are my mother…
The one that shall never escape my mind
The one that fills my explodes my sad cloud….

You are so unique
For nothing replaces your gentle knock
That awakens the angel within a person
As it guides those who are blind towards the correct direction…

I grew up in your hands
As you watched me learn how to stand…
Until I flew up high
Raised my wings and flew towards the sky…

Yet…Each year….
A day passes with calm music to the ear
As a melody is played across my lips
Addressing you with a tulip

Slowly…That day approaches…
Quickly…That day passes…
A child stood in front of you that day
But today, she’s a young lady
Wishing you a Happy Birthday…
