Birthdays come and go
Some are looked forward to with great anticipation
And some anticipated with gloomy thoughts of time passing
But each one must be acknowledged in customary form
If nothing else, but to please those who try so hard
A dinner, gifts, and singing the song
Quite often the same ritual year after year
In one manner or another
Whether be it a big pizza party for a six year old
Or something to honor a great grandfather turning ninety nine
A celebration of some form,
Sometimes with streamers, pinatas, and games
Or a quiet gathering...a small number sitting around
A little table at The Olive Garden for an hour
No balloons, no cake, no candle, but acknowledgement, just the same
Nice....
Looking back on the latter, this simple family gathering
An evening dinner hour at The Olive Garden
The honoree, a woman, whose years seem to pass by so quickly
Over plates of ravioli, and eggplant parmasean, one special moment
A memory of a birthday that won't be forgotten
When a blonde little boy, .......her grandson
With his head held low, his 6 year old manner
Quiet, with shy repose, reaching into his pocket,
Holding out his one and only..
Most precious minature figure of Darth Vader
Saying, ..."I brought this for you, Grandma. It's your present."
What better birthday could a Grandma have?
Happy Birthday To Me!!
Hurry the horse is the basis of this story.
The invitation came with just a week till it's glory.
Graces 1st birthday party, well we simply have to go.
So off went Great Grandma and Grandpa to the lumber store in the snow.
5/4" board, 3/4" board, some glue and some screws.
They were so excited to share in the news.
But Grandpa had to hurry, had to get right to work.
So Grandma said I'll go put on the coffee to perk.
Grandpa worked steady, hard and true, but in the end there was just so much to do.
Two days to go, they resigned to a note.
We're making you a rocking horse is what they had wrote.
Uncle Bob offered to help him get it done.
Grandpa said, I think we can, and it sure would be more fun.
To give it to her at her party when she celebrates turning one.
So the day before the big event.
They both got down to task.
And time it flew right off the clock.
But they both determined this horse would rock, on the day of the party to give
Grace a ride.
Time came to give Grace her present.
And all eyes flew open wide.
And you could just feel Grandma and Grandpa's hearts swelll up inside.
So thats the story of Hurry the horse.
Who came to be in a scamper and quite a force.
So happy birthday Grace, from Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Bob.
We three have never had a more enjoyable job.
