FOR OUR DAUGHTER ON HER BIRTHDAY

Another winter comes and goes
How tired we are of all those snows
How pleased we are when Spring is here
It signals that your birthday’s near
We understand you’d rather not
See them at all, they’re best forgot
But look upon the brighter side
Your youth that was such a fun ride
Is now behind you, no bad thing
Good middle age will ease the sting
Of memories that make you wince
At dumb things you have not done since
So middle age is best of all
What memories you will recall
Of sitting on the couch all night
And watching movies recondite
We have our memories of you
Forever with us, ever new
You fill to brim our mem’ry banks
And so we give our many thanks
To He who made you what you are
Your mom and dad’s bright shining star

 LOVE AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY
MOM AND DAD
