Turning Two

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, ©2011

On your birthday
as you turn two
It almost made me
feel a bit blue

Only yesterday
you were born
And as you grow
I feel a bit torn

The days fly by
And you're no longer a baby
I think with a sigh
You're still a cutie

Watching you grow
has been a delight
With each passing day
you are a blessing in our sight.

On Her Birthday

Poet: M. E. B.

'Tis your birthday, and your first, dear girl,
I wish you health and joy;
And may you many birthdays see.
And spend them all most happily.

Twelve months ago to-day, dear girl,
You were a very little thing;
And now you are but just one year,
And that is all, my dear.

I beg you will accept, dear girl.
This very little book;
And hope it may suffice to prove
A trifling tribute of my love.

And now I must conclude, dear girl,
And bid you fond farewell;
And every kindest wish renew:
Dearest one, now adieu.
