On Your Birthday
Many forms of remembering
play some important roles.
in a relationship, a great deal of meaning
as an inner experience, joy.
Across the length of time
a link in memories
abound tales of kindness,
sincerity and reconciliation.
To identify some common feelings
there's gratitude . . .
something visible to stand on
as an experience worth sharing.
Laden with good memories
life goes on . . .
through thick and thin,
still I'm thankful
with opportunities at hand
bring significance in the long run.
Along with tests at the crossroads
God provides me with strength
to enable me to hug you,
wear a smile and eventually
accost you, "Happy Birthday."
