The pain will go away and we will rejoice again
The dark cloud will fade and we will have a brighter day
With this hope in our hearts
With the believe intact
With the faith in God
We will overcome
Surely
We will overcome

That's what poems do... tell
Designed to tell a story
A story which is not
A story which was
Which should be
A story which is
Which could be
Of a being
A thing
Who is
Who was
Who has been
Who has never been
In this particular existence

That's what poems do... speak
Generally speak of an issue
An issue of keen interest
Issue being spoken of
Dare to be spoken of
An issue which was
Issue which is
Should be
Would be
Could be
Of a thing
Of a being
Of itself, poem
Of its writer, poet
Of another, the subject
In this particular existence

On this day, the 17th of March,
A star was born, a spark to march.
With each new year, you shine more bright,
A beacon glowing through the night.

The world around you, full of grace,
Reflects the kindness in your face.
With laughter, love, and dreams so bold,
A story of you yet to be told.

May this year bring joy and cheer,
And all the things you hold most dear.
Happy birthday, a day for you,
With hopes and dreams to all come true.

Here's to many more to share,
With love, adventures everywhere.
On this special day, we sing,
Happy birthday, let joy take wing!
