To the Precious You

Once upon a time
A very long time
In a blessed place
On a blessed day
A precious you was welcomed 
into
the human race
The whole world filled with joy
'you are welcomed" they said.

Here you are, precious you
now sturdy and elegant
were you not that little boy
of that blessed day?
Time has changed
Days have increased on you.
Today is your day, precious you.

Everyone wishing
Precious you smiling
Friends caring
Precious you happy
It's your day, precious you
Happy birthday, precious you.
