When I first held you, I kissed you with my eyes, And fell in love; your birthday, a special day! You're the hope floating in the turquoise blue skies; The bright sunshine behind clouds of ashen gray. You'd lift my spirits whenever I feel blue. My heart bursts with delight just looking at you No question, you're but a mesmerizing sight! Oh, what a feeling! My soul have taken flight.

Coming from the greatest poet of PS ever--in my opinion, at least--that means a great deal to me. Thank you very much for the visit and wonderful comments, Susan:-)
