Your Special Day

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

To my love, Happy Birthday
Today is your special day
My heart is filled with joy and pride,
When I am by your side.

Your love and kindness are something I can't ignore
It's why I chose you alone, today and forevermore.
May your birthday be filled with sunshine and laughter,
And may the coming year bring happiness ever after.  

Once Upon A Time

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Once upon a time, we were young and so fair,
Now the passing years more wrinkles and gray hair,
We’ll choose to rejoice on this special day,
An opportunity to celebrate you in every way.

Gray hairs and wrinkles are birthday woes,
Some people may bemoan these as foes.
But who cares if we're getting older?
Let's just celebrate and be even bolder!

And as we celebrate another year,
We can rejoice in the bond we have so dear.
A bond that is more real and stronger
Despite the birthdays we have no longer.

Happy Birthday, my love, I celebrate you
Love and appreciate all that you do.
May the coming year bring all that you wish
And hopefully, this poem will bring me a kiss!

Giving us a strength that will never fall.
