My Bonnie lass is sixteen now
Her birthday is today.
And for a husky that is old
I’ve heard our young vet say.
My dear old dog, we love her so
And glad that she’s still here.
Her routine every day is set
She’s trained us well each year.
A pup who loved to go for walks
I’d let her off the lead.
She’d run about, and proved to be
An independent breed.
We’ve watched her grow, she has great style
A husky through and through.
She loves to have our company
We spoil her, that is true.
A better friend could never have
Such joy to us she brings.
Although she’s old, still has her life
That pulls on our heart’s strings.
The years have flown, her time is near
No longer can she play.
But now she’s turned sweet sixteen,
“Bonnie Happy Birthday”.
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 were still around.
You died and there was nothing I could do to stop it from happening.
You were always a terrific mother and I'm proud to be your offspring.
I had to accept your death but I wish you were still alive.
You had an abdominal aneurysm and you didn't survive.
The surgeon couldn't save your life even though he tried.
Today would've been your 77th birthday if you hadn't died.
[Dedicated to Agnes Johnson (1948-2013) who passed away on March 6, 2013]
I saw it . . .
A golden morning sun,
Surfacing the crystalline ocean,
Hanging high beyond the foggy horizon,
It's my birthday!

Dearest Cousin Yolanda~
Ponderings on our days so very long ago,
When we were the stars of our parents’ lifelong show.
How proud they were to have us at their side!
We were precious and cared for, like angels with sweet smiles
I saw you blossom from a charming, sweet, little girl.
Your mother loved and cared for you, like an expensive, shiny pearl.
I see you as the same diamond child that you once so happily were.
Love,
Cousin Pangiota
You and I have been friends for many moons
You and I have played together countless afternoons
Not to mention many mornings and many nights.
Since today is your birthday, I want to send you: kaleidoscopic lights
Multiple dancing rainbows of heaven, exotic flowers
And warm hugs and I’ll blow fresh new kisses from afar to your ears.
I called you my special darling for numerous reasons
I hoped our friendship would flourish through all seasons
Even though I am now disappointed, down and sad
And though we’re no longer committed to each other; I’m not mad.
No matter what, today is a special and beautiful day
For you and me. I’m very happy for you
In my heart, you will always have a niche, a stay
You will forever remain deep in my spleen and my soul.

Happy birthday Barbara
I am sending you my love
To your vaunted place in Heaven
As you're watching from above
You are gone but not forgotten
For the years we spent in life
You were the best, I could have had
As a lover, friend and wife
The only reason I’d let something I love
go is if staying with me meant they’d
die in my hands. Like the time I stole
a butterfly and kept it in my house for
ten minutes. I watched it cluster on my
window net, fighting to flee. I wanted
it close, so I didn’t let it leave. I brought
in some plants, hoping it would stay,
but it refused to lean on them. The plants,
uprooted, had no time before they bled brown.
So I let the butterfly go. I opened the window
and watched its wings flap free. If I’d kept it,
it would have died. And if I let it die, then I
didn’t love it enough.
Now, if I wanted it back so badly, I wouldn’t just
steal it again. I’d create a garden first.
Happy Birthday to Me.
The Duchess of the deep bloom.
I hope I get everything I deserve.
“Brevity is the soul of wit.” Shakespeare (from Hamlet, Act 2, scene 2)
Succinctness must be kin to wit.
In his own way, Shakespeare said it,
so why use words to flutter and flit.

magical sunset
a greater enchanted light
dazzing welkin paints
Yesterday, white and cold was the weather
It’s now gone old winter
It’s like turning a light switch on
Today is the birth of the spring season
Let me wish you: Happy Anniversary, Ms. Spring
Happy Birthday, my love! Again, the birds are chirping
After a long séjour flying in a warmer climate
They look like lovers coming off a lavish date
Tonight is our turn to go to dinner
To a fine dining restaurant and then to the theater
Where we can unwind, relax and have fun
The tropical wind is back, the warmth of the sun
Is back and the moon is now dancing among the stars
And of course, the beauty of the magnificent flowers
Cannot be ignored. Old and grouchy winter is gone
All the lights and glitters are on, a new season is born.

Happy birthday to you all.
To everyone who was born on this day.
To International women day.
It is a wonderful day to celebrate.
Privately or publicly.
You shall have at least a present if not two.
No matter where you are at this moment,
You deserve to enjoy the celebration.
As you are one year older
You should be a bit wiser.
Did you know that,
Wisdom grows every 7 years.
I wish you could see your love one,
To wish you Happy birthday in person.
And giving you some birthday presents.
Best wishes. Happy everyday and always.
Today is your birthday my love
You are in the mood to celebrate
The moon shone brightly last night
Heralding beautiful sunshine this morning
In appreciation of a paragon of beauty
Born some years ago
Wonderfully and beautifully made
Enigmatic and tenacious
Determined and loving
Audacious and outspoken
Visionary and persistent
I wish you the best life can offer
You are one in a trillion!
Happy birthday my love
I hope you know I would love you with all of my heart,
I hope you realise how much I miss you when we’re apart,
I’ve never loved anyone how I love you,
and I don’t want to,
you are the only one for me, me and you is what I believe,
I believe in you more then I believe in us, but I promise to love you until your time is up,
I love you more then you will ever know, I guess I loved you too much, and now I can’t let go.
