Happy Birthday to Me!

I love birthday

Especially mine!

It's a day to celebrate

All the wonder

That brought you

To where you are today.

Whether 10 or 110

Each candle represents

The details of your years.

The sunny days of smiles.

The hard cold winter of a frown.

The tears, like candle wax

Dotting the frosting.

The warm blaze,

Like friendship's embrace.

Make a wish

And blow out the candles

Still bright inside

With warm memories

Of this year's growth.
