To Dear Simar on her birthday
Adorable, charming,
sweet mesmerising smile,
Familiar grace,
twinkle in dreamy eyes;
Essence of wisdom,
unfolding humour,
You subtly touched
our longing heart;
Our son’s cherished soul,
You became our daughter
from the very start.
Watching you together
brings us joy,
For in your happiness
our hearts abide.
O’ dear Simar…
Treasure our love
endless unseen, crystal pure,
Feel in inner sanctum,
realm of myriad realisms;
Soft as mist of rain,
tranquil as moonshine,
Heavens will fall
as you requite.
On this special day,
beneath the birthday skies,
May the eloquent elixir
flow deep to marrow,
Abundance embrace
through dusk and dawn,
Wherever life may take
you both to roam,
May love and laughter
always lead you home.
We raise a toast
to this beautiful day,
To the lovely soul
who lights our way;
May your every dream
each wish come true,
How blessed we are
that life brought us you.

Birthdays come, and birthdays go.
As you get older.
Falling quickly like white snow.
But it's always great to get a nice hello.
From those you remember, and who you gladly still know.

to you my darling
may you have many more years
to cherish our love
To a man, who inspires us through his lines,
Evergreen, yet maturing like fine wine.
My heartfelt wishes to you dear friend,
who sets trend and never pretends.
May your imagination flow like a river without an end,
May you pen down thoughts that inspire and transcends.
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday!
Let the tables turn;
Let this day return
Again and again;
I feel insane
Without you, my dear;
Our friendship’s sheer.
O, my best friend,
Amity has no end;
Best wishes for you;
Nothing can hurt you,
For you will stay girt
With the love from my heart.
Do not feel morose;
Life, as usual, goes,
But our amity will bring
You back to health and sing
The glories of life,
Banishing age-old strife.
Stay strong, stay strong,
Sing life’s glorious song.
Life is for us, for us all.
Listen to life’s sweet call.
O, chum,
Let us hum
Life’s glory,
Not such flurry.
Aye, the hospital
Must give disposal;
I would say, I do say
To dream of a sunny day.
What can COVID-19 do?
It can never, never touch you.
We can win, this we must defeat;
Get ready for life's dear drumbeat.
There is the sun, there he is, yes, he is
To make the cloud come to the cease.
Happy birthday, happy birthday!
Many happy returns of the day.
Thou steppedst into this world with a purpose,
And it's by HIS Grace for Glory,
Each moment HE hath led thee in HIS Care,
All thro' thy twenty years HE kept thee in HIS Bosom,
Each thought in thy mind is HIS Grace,
Each word thou uttereth is by HIS Power,
Each deed of thine is HIS Will to do,
And thy breath in thee is HIS Gift to seek Eternity.
Thou hast travelled twenty milestones in HIS Care,
And on this day thou hast steppedst into thy 21st milestone on earth,
That thou shall be in HIS Love till reaching Eternity.
And so, thou shall walk in His Footsteps ever,
And HE is God in Christ JESUS WHO is the ONLY WAY into Eternity.
Happy Birthday, Jo.

??????BIRTHDAY WISHES TO MOM??????
Across the miles, a love so true,
Reaches out to wish a happy birthday to you!
Though distance apart, you're always near,
In my heart, where love and memories appear.
Every year, your beauty will always shine,
A radiant soul, with a heart so divine.
Your kindness, care, and guiding light,
Have shaped my life, & made everything right.
On your special day, I want to say,
How grateful I am, in every way.
For the sacrifices, the laughter, & the tears,
For the love you've shown, through all the years.
So here's to you, dear mom, on your birthday,
May it be filled with joy, love, and every happiness in every way!
Though we're far apart, know you're always near,
In my heart, where love and memories appear.

Birthday Wishes: Horatian Ode
Sweet sixteen with no happy birthday cake.
Oh, Mother, you're missed but I am bitter.
How many hundreds did your calloused hands make?
So steady, so sure, why do they quiver?
A Mother who has no thought for herself,
A daughter too immature to think to help.
A lovely, womanly form, but only Momma to me..
Oh Momma, she has your eyes so you can watch over me.
Abducted suddenly from youth, captive in haggardly age,
Your battle with scalpels left their jagged marks…
Just as your ancestral Natives wore paint when war raged,
It was your way to push back at the dark.
If time were a river, I'd gladly jump right in…
To dark, freezing waters, no matter, I'd swim…
To try to give back a portion of your goodness and light,
Stand with my back to yours and together we'd fight.
In the dark of night
I seen a light
Was it a Star from a far?
Or a Planet?
Or another sun?
And as I learned,
Could it be
When time begun?
You see they say
If you look to a
Certain way
Through the universe,
What you may
See is times course.
Or is it
A Rock, shooting across the sky,
To make a wish from?
As you watch it go by.
You look up and wonder
And close your eyes
And a dream comes true
No matter how many
Years go by.
D.S.
I wished for a horse. My whole childhood and more.
Comet is his name. Dream on and make a wish again.
I sit here with pen in hand,
With nothing much to say
Then a thought came into mind
So I better write it right away
To everyone on Poetry Soup
Who this poem applies to
Near or far
Wherever you are
Congratulations are due
So to all who read this poem
All I have to say
I wish you good health and happiness
And Joy, if it's your Birthday today.
Blessed to watch you grow
And prosper everyday
Getting taller
Getting stronger
Living longer
Becoming more independent
A bird flying without its mother's wings
You are a lifetime of goods things...
Is yet to come...
But first let's celebrate the 8 years you have lived
A fork clanking against a dish
As we sing another birthday wish!
- I love you & happy birthday to my little sister Chloe!
Happy Birthday to my mom in Heaven. I love you and miss you, always. I wish we could celebrate your birthday together. Much love and hugs.

Happy birthday to you
My dearest mom
I hope you are enjoying
Your birthday up in Heaven
I love and miss you each day
There's so much I want to share with you
But I know the angels pass on messages
To remind you how much I care
Enjoy your cupcakes and seaviews
Enjoy your mountains and waterfalls
Anything is possible in Heaven
You have God's whole Universe to explore
Birthday wishes for today
Even though we cannot celebrate
I think of you often
And wish we could be together again

Would time resolve everything
If mine stopped
A silver lining holds me together
Little push and I may leap
Would happiness surround me
If my smile fades forever
A patient prays on his deathbed
Let me live he weeps
Another cries from her warm bed
Take me to the skies
Before the sun rises
I wish to be gone
Happy Birthday to you, my dear! Happy Birthday to you.
I like to drive greetings for you, 'Happy Birthday to you'.
Let fall upon you, the first Sun rays,
and you eat your most favorite cake.
We’ll share too, if you offer to us,
dear! Just for your company shake.
We all are here to wish you, Happy Birthday to you.
I wish the success, kisses your feet,
Topmost person, you become indeed.
May all of your wishes be fulfilled.
World may remember, you and good deeds.
All your dreams may come true. Happy birthday to you.
With this brief, the birthday song,
We wish you live, good health and long,
Be adored by everyone,
Have good friends, you shine among.
Let the success stand in queue, Happy Birthday to you.
- S. D. Tiwari
