Just Another Day
Birthday
Special day
Day we reckon as special
Deviate from normal
Indulge in celebration
Spotlighting attention
None in Nature ever celebrates
All perform their usual duties
Stars, Sun, Moon, Trees, Rivers, Hills
All Wonders, none yearns for wishes
Birth, Death ends of same spectrum
Life in between is real celebration
Celebrate moments with gratitude
Wish well, help others gain altitude
Birthday
Just another day

One Year of You, Melissa
One Year of You, Melissa
One year ago, the stars began,
And heaven said, "She is mine."
A small spark, a breath so new,
The world was brighter all for you.
Your giggles flower like morning sun,
Your eyes, two stars that brightly shine.
Each step you take, each sound you make,

A Rich Rhyme
Louis Watson loved well made, toy ships, and had a fine collection,
Since father was a sailor himself. Like aged wind's novel directions.
Louis loved sailing toy ships on Crystal Pond, like gaiety filled youth.
He'd pretend they sailed on open seas, laden with candies and fruit!
His family lived on the edge of town, beneath pink-beige starlight,
Looming as

Yugoslavia
Yugoslavia
My first wife and I went on holiday
55 years ago, in Yugoslavia
The tourist industry was struggling
to find its feet, we stayed in a freshly
painted barracks, which caused some
jokes about what the buildings had
housed before us
I remember a forest and a lake, but I
must be mistaken, we went there to
swim in the sea
When I told my

MY BIRTHDAY PRAYERS
Father God Almighty
It's a new era for me
Thanks for all you do
Bless this era
So I don't repeat lessons
Let my problems be lessened.
Make a way
Where there seems to be none
For that's what you're known for
That's why I'm steadily relying on you
I need your reply
A speedy answer.
Do it your way
Before I try my way
So

It’s vital that you take good care of yourself going forward.
Since you’re now sixty-five years old, you should feel blessed
Lucky, privileged and chosen. Please, please never get depressed

JACK ELLISON IS NINETY YEARS OLD TODAY
August the eleventh is a very special day
Because happy Jack Ellison is ninety today
A talented musician he used to play the banjo
With the Canadiana singers, many years ago
A ladies' man with a keen eye for the fillies
Makes us all laugh with his limerick sillies
But Jack he can write serious poetry too
He's a proud Canadian through

The Architect's Design-Birthday Poem
Like a work of art,
Formed from thought,
Detailed with steez,
Classic in taste, elegant in style
A design by The Architect.
In the eighth month,
Infinity ?? stands
Not just to mark the month,
But to align with the day:
8/8 - Eight, Zero, Eight.
The hands of the Maker
Reflect His image
On the mold He shaped with passion.
Not merely a symbol,
But a living entity

An Invisible Rose for Your Birthday
Yesterday was your birthday
Unfortunately, that was a busy day
However, I went to the garden
Of my heart this beautiful morning
Where I picked an invisible rose that could bring:
Happiness, joy, good humor and an early spring.
I shaved my beard and mustache to make your day
With all my heart, I wish you a happy birthday
Oh! I would like

Happy Birthday, Mom - Part XIII
When I learned how sick you became, I knew I had to pray.
If you hadn't died, we'd be celebrating your 77th birthday.
You are the reason why I exist.
You certainly have been missed.
You were born on the side of the road because the ambulance broke down.
You were my mother and I would be happier if you

Laughter
Laughter
I laughed with a Pride,
My laugh was lost with a shame .
Smile faded away like hot air.
Jokes where bad towards me .
Anger spread like a disease, disease that killed my laughter.
I used to feel the laughter in my stomach.
Where is my smile?
My life had changed,
Smile also changed.
Hateness became a friend.
Why it

Birthday Wisdom
The older we get, the more time is a wild river
with nothing standing in its way ~
One solution for slowing time down is to
live it up during your whole birthday month ~
At our age, it's not wise to cram too much celebrating
in just one day ~ we need to pace ourselves

The famous saying is to "Thank God you seen another year
But there's more pains, aches and worries with more tears
Each year you're asking yourself what did i do with my life
Creating a bucket list and trying to make it right
If we're proud of aging then why have a midlife crises
Why do you have to become
