Happy Birthday

couldn't think of a better present for you

then for me to tell you

how much I love you

you taught me so much

every time you cross my brain

I think of your kindness

and the peace you show everyone

you meet

your smile is incomparable

thinking of the time we spent on the porch

telling stories

maybe sometimes having lunch

you grew my imagination like a seed

feeding and watering it

with morsels of knowledge and joy

LOVE YOU
