Celebrate
Poet: Julie Hebert,�2011

It's time to party and celebrate,
A wonderful day this is going to be.
We figured you’d want to forget it,
But no way we’d allow that, would we?

So what if you’re getting older?
We all are and that's just how it is.
Embrace all the changes that come age,
All the good and the bad, no need for a quiz.

So forget all about the potbelly,
The wrinkles, the balding and grey hair.
Its time to accept the inevitable,
And allow your friends to throw you a shindig affair.

A birthday so wonderful needs to be celebrated,
We want to make sure you follow through.
Today on this happy occasion,
We're here to say Happy Birthday to you.

A Reason To Celebrate
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, �2020

Your birthday is a reason to celebrate,
A time to reflect and appreciate,
All the joy and love you bring,
To our lives, like a song to sing.

We feel blessed to have you here,
With your kindness and your cheer,
You light up every room you're in,
Like a ray of sunshine with a spin.

Happy Birthday to you, may your day
Be blessed in every way!

A Day To Celebrate
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, �2020

A birthday is a day to celebrate
We even chipped together and bought a cake.
We know how many candles we must buy
Your age takes a lot we will not lie.

But we want to celebrate with you
Cause we love you that is true
Even if the years roll by
Celebrate don't you cry

So Happy Birthday to you
Be happy, don't be blue
Before you know it
The candles will be lit.

And we will sing and cheer
Cause we think you're a dear
We will celebrate with you
Wishing happiness the whole year through!

Years Do Unfold
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

In the passage of time, as years do unfold,
We witness the truth that is certain and bold.
For with every birthday, another year's embrace,
Aging beseeches us to seek wisdom and grace.

Yet let not the numbers diminish our worth,
But celebrate days since our day of birth.
In each passing moment, let age take a pause,
And cherish existence with infinite applause.

let not the numbers diminish our worth, But celebrate days since our day of birth.

Time To Celebrate
Poet: Julie Hebert, �2011

Please allow me to tell you who's great,
As that person, I talk of is you.
Today on your birthday I feel the need,
To announce all the great things you do.

You love to help others who need you,
And spend time with family and friends.
You hate to leave things unfinished,
So you’re always finishing up the loose ends.

Even today on your birthday,
Instead of celebrating and having fun,
You’d rather work hard with your business,
And not finish until you see the midnight sun.

I’m here to tell you to its time to celebrate,
As your work will always be there.
But there are only so many days you call your birthday,
Let go out with not even a care.

you are the reason for the celebration Happy Birthday
