Over the sands of time you’ve travelled. Across the ocean of life you’ve sailed. Through the fog of daily worries, Your unfailing love’s prevailed. Your light shines from within, Brighter than the heavenly sky. The fire in your soul’s unquenched, The flames one can’t deny. Don’t measure your life in years Nor by the number of breaths you take, For we’re blessed by your resounding wisdom And the memories you continue to make. In your footsteps I wish to tread, I want to grow in your direction, To mirror your warmth and kindness, Your honesty, integrity and affection. Your life is truly remarkable, A lasting legacy you’ll surely bestow. Let’s joyfully sing your melody And forever bask in your glow. Although you’ve entered your twilight years, So much you’ve done is unsung, But in your heart, for all eternity, May you be strong, radiant and young.

A poem for a mother’s 80th birthday
I wear my skirt long I eat a lot I repeat my clothes I don't say the right things I wear baggy clothes I don't wear make up I bite my nails I have an attitude And I don't have a hot boyfriend ........ I may be the person people talk about Or the person who they think I am But I don't change what I do for them Or be the puppet they want me to be ....... I'm just simply me :)
