Happy Birthday Dear Grandma

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Dear Grandma, on your special day,
We gather 'round to gladly say,
You're the light that guides our way,
With love and warmth, come what may.

You've been there for us, year after year,
Through laughter, joy, and even tears,
Supporting us, through highs and lows,
With wisdom, only a grandma knows.

Your caring heart has no end,
A rock on which we all depend,
Encouraging us to follow our dreams,
Believing in us, or so it seems.

Today, we celebrate your birth,
A precious soul of immeasurable worth,
May happiness surround you, Grandma, dear,
Today and always, throughout the year.

So blow out the candles, make a wish,
For all the joy your heart can cherish,
We love you, Grandma, more than words can express,
Wishing you the very best, with love and tenderness.
