It's Your Birthday

The sun will come out 
for it’s your birthday
The winds will cease 
for it’s your birthday
There’s a smile on my face 
for it’s your birthday
But you are not here 
even though it’s your birthday
Cancer took you too soon 
so all your birthdays stopped
But even though you are not here 
I celebrate your birthday dear
With a poem 
and a card 
and a nice glass of Chablis
The sky is so blue 
on this very special Sunday
Oh to see your smile 
and to chat for a while
I will tell the whole world 
they can sing the birthday song
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday to you 
My darling dear Frank hear me sing all day long 

17th March 2019 – Frank’s Birthday…

Happy Birthday to Frank in Heaven, your St. Patrick's Day gift, Ann. I know he is doing a clog dance up there, and blowing four-leaf clovers your way. Take a walk in the park and do some spins and hops in his honor. This is the beginning of optimistic joy returning. I can feel this one!

Oh bless you Caren for your lovely message and I think you are right about the optimistic joy. After such terrible gales and rain the sky is blue and the sun is bright in the sky - a smile from my love! Kindest thoughts Ann xx
