We remember as it were yesterday, On a January morn’ 39 years past,
Tiny face & blue eyes peered at us, Little fingers that held on steadfast,
Now on threshold of new milestone, In your life’s stage that’s truly prime,
‘Thirty Nine’ looks good on you, Son, We pray that now comes your ‘Time’,
Cheers to more amazing experiences, Growth, success and love like fine wine,
May good fortune crown your endeavor, Make all your dreams real and sublime,
Today enjoy your Cake and lovely Gifts, For this day no one will be giving advice,
Every beautiful moment be celebrated, Making memories that are warm & nice,
Tomorrow will come with life lessons, As in Longfellow’s ‘Psalm of Life’
‘Let us be up and doing, Still achieving and
Still pursuing (our goals), Learning to labor on,
And unafraid of waiting..’
Happy Birthday Nanu & God Bless !
