As candles light the room, a glow so bright,
Each flicker tells a story of days gone by.
The laughter and the tears, the joys and fight,
Another year, a whisper in the sky.

The cake adorned with wishes, sweet and pure,
A symbol of the dreams we hold so dear.
Each slice a promise, hopes we can endure,
To cherish every moment, every year.

Friends and family gather, hearts entwined,
Their presence a gift, a bond so strong.
In their smiles, the love we always find,
Together we can face what comes along.

So let us toast to life, to love, to cheer,
With gratitude for all that we hold dear.
Another birthday, another precious year,
A journey that we celebrate right here.
