Happy Birthday Mom

To Mom and From Kyle 
With the utmost respect 
Today is your birthday
You thought I'd forget?

What a joyous occasion
For being alive 
When people are thinking 
You turned 35! 

With awesome finesse
You've gone through life's gauntlet 
Your wise and compassionate 
Not to mention accomplished! 

So many respect you 
And not without merit
So many good traits 
I've been glad to inherit  

Without further adieu 
I'm excited to say 
May your 59th birthday 
Be a fabulous day!

Cause you too are expressing those traits in your action and acknowledging it... So adorable!!! Login to Reply

Voahanitriniaina Rabary-Andriamanday Date: 10/2/2012 11:08:00 AM Very moving! Some people take mothers' love too much for evident and forget to mention it openly and tell it like you do. As a mother, I can testify how greedy we are and much longing for sweet hugs and looks and smiles and words, especially! Keep on being such a blessing to your mother...:) Hanitra Login to Reply
