The exercise:
Today is Kat's birthday - we went out for dinner, then we went out for dessert, now I'm going out cold. Je suis le sleepy.
The starter for today is: happy birthday.
Mine:
Happy birthday to you,
You are a dream come true;
Happy birthday to you,
Words will just never do,
English just has too few,
To give you your full due.
Happy Happy Birthday to you
ReplyDeleteYou know my Happy Birthday songs are never the same
As you are not the same each year you get older my dear
Happy Birthday wishes to you
May they all come true today
Happy Birthday I miss you!!!
That sounds like a lovely day, and your poem is very sweet too.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday
No rose's bloom can be as sweet
As you, nor my eager words but say
How much you truly mean to me
Happy Birthday
No calligraphy can express my thoughts
Nor sculptor shape them with his clay
I love and honour and protect you
Happy Birthday.
Cagrowngirl - thanks very much for dropping by :)
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of birthday songs changing from year to year because the person is changing as well.
Greg - that's a very sweet poem you've crafted yourself there.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to my dear friend,
With you I just don’t need to pretend,
You know what's on my mind,
You are so genuine and kind,
I am so lucky; I have you as my friend,
Happy birthday my dear friend.
Happy birthday to you
ReplyDeleteOur love is so true,
You are close to my heart
So I let you smell my farts.
This day is so special for someone so sweet,
so pick a good restaurant so we can go eat.
