A Birthday Wish


Even though today finds us miles apart, I still want to express this wish from my heart. To wish you abundant happiness and mirth, on this special day, the day of your birth. Let no clouds darken the sky above you, let no rain dampen the ground below you. Let no frowns be worn, no anxieties burden you today, as those near and dear to your heart celebrate the wonder and joy of knowing you. Let them reflect back to you the uniqueness you bring to the world. Your dancing eyes, your laughing face, your sassy sense of style as well as your beautiful grace, which you so adorn the world. So let this day, this special day shine above all others, this August day, in the full bosom of summer.
