8 Birthday Poems to My Son

1. Another Year Older
   Poet: Julie Hebert, ©2011
   
   I must start this off by saying Happy Birthday,
   To a son who's always so fun.
   It's hard to believe you're getting older,
   But don't worry you’ve still got a long run.
   
   Today your just turning a year older,
   It's not like you're losing your hair.
   Oh wait you have started receding,
   I’m so sorry your scalp is going bare.
   
   Next, you'll be seeing wrinkles,
   Then comes the bodily displease.
   Oh my, getting older is scary,
   But I'm sure you’ll age just like old cheese.
   
   Wait, old cheese does not age very well,
   I meant you’ll age like old wine.
   Oh really, who am I kidding?
   You're still the best son, that's the bottom line!

Birthday Quotes



2. Wisdom They Say
   by Kate Summers
   
   One can make a difference,
   One haircut can change your appearance,
   One smile can cheer someone up,
   One kind word can make someone's day
   One hour of attention with a child do play.
   One negative thought can leave you in dismay,
   Son, remember one year older brings wisdom they say!
