Each year unfolds like petals bright,
A candle’s glow against the night.
We gather ’round in warm embrace,
To cherish love, to honor grace.
Time whispers secrets in our ears,
A tapestry of hopes and fears.
With every laugh, with every tear,
We find the strength to persevere.
The cake, a symbol of sweet time,
As memories dance in gentle rhyme.
Friends and family, side by side,
In this moment, hearts open wide.
So raise a toast to days ahead,
To dreams yet dreamt, to words unsaid.
For birthdays mark the paths we’ve trod,
A journey shared, a gift from God.
