Happy Birthday

by Glynis Smy, Sep 15, 2008

Adult children who live away still have a place in our hearts. This non-rhyming verse is ideal for a blank card when you are struggling to find the right words for their birthday. It is suitable for a male or female.

I offer these words from my heart
I cannot always be there for you
I know I've not always got things right
You are an incredible person
I admire your passion for life
You walk this earth unaware
You do not see the affect you have
How you touch the hearts of those around you
Oh you are not perfect, who is?
You are you, an individual
You make me smile when I see the little things
Little actions that take me back
Remembering your childhood ways
Today is your birthday
A day to be celebrated
Although we are far apart,
And I cannot hold you close
I can wish you a wonderful birthday
My thoughts are with you always
My Love for you ...never ending
