Happy Birthday to Me

Oh great!

Just what I need,

Another reminder – Time swiftly passing –

Alas, once again to reflect on the ages

And celebrate “Me” with cards, cake and candles.

 

Well-wishers? Abundant.

Amazed that I’ve endured the quest,

Survived the test of father time.

Methuselah, beware.

Your record in jeopardy.

 

Don’t mind really.

Just another year older,

Thankful for the chance to see

The dew drops of a brand new day,

Sit quietly with the one I love

And reflect on my blessings,

Memories collected,

And to know with a certainty

That life will continue

Long after I shed this mortal shell.
