Each year a candle is added, a flame so bright,
Reflecting the passages, the days and nights.
Memories etched in the heart and mind,
A journey of moments, uniquely intertwined.

Faces and places, some near and some far,
Marking our paths like a guiding star.
Laughter and tears, both joy and strife,
We celebrate the essence of life.

Birthdays remind us of the love we’ve known,
The seeds we’ve planted, the way we’ve grown.
A tapestry of stories, woven with care,
Each thread a symbol of the times we share.

So here’s to the birthdays, the milestones we cross,
Embracing the gains, accepting the loss.
With each passing year, in light and in shade,
We honor the lives that each of us has made.
