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!
