It's Your Birthday
It is more profound
Than one might surmise.
Is it fate, karma...is it providence?
What has determined the date and time?...
That very moment
We make our grand entrance...
Into this world?
And to revisit the date
A self-imposed holiday...
As surely as the tides flow
As the season's change...
How glorious.
How well you've navigated...
The perils and pitfalls.
How determined you are...
To leave this world a better place.
Reaffirmed every 365th
What gift could I give
That you haven't already achieved
Other than my acknowledgment and praise...
My time and my love?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
