Happy Birthday

By: Benna Michel (View Profile)

Let us celebrate this day
Let us celebrate and say
This marks a glorious time
That you,
Remarkably kind
Authentically human
And quite refined

Were born at such
A time—
That you are the reason
For this day.

Let the clouds part in the sky
Let the angels sing up high
Let the poets write with praise
Let the artists’ paint your precious gaze.

Let the music pervade the streets
Let us dance with all we meet
Let the choir sing their song
Let the children dance along.

Let the strength you have within
Be acknowledged by everyone,
Dear friend,

That on this day
That you were born
And with good reason.

This is so real. I hope you've given it to the someone(s) you've written it for. Birthdays are oftentimes overlooked, but they still hold magic....even as we age.

This is wonderful! I hope no one lifts it without giving you credit for writing it. I just sent it to a friend for her birthday and I sent her to your profile on this site. Do you write for a living? I read a few other things of yours and they're grreeat!
Tell us a Story.

You know you've got something to share. Maybe it's something funny, touching, inspirational or informative. Whatever it is, your circle of friends here at DivineCaroline would love to hear from you.
