Your birthday for us is always a day,
To thank God for His best Creation;
I am sure He has shown us the way,
To continue with our best celebration.
As you grew into a pretty young girl,
Family and friends must have been in awe;
Looking at you was as if beholding a pearl,
The loveliest that anyone ever saw.
Before long, God’s messengers came to me,
And said, “For life-partner don’t look too far;
God has intended her especially for thee,
She’ll be your brightest moon and star.
I bowed my head to God’s command,
And took you gleefully as my wife;
As I held your hand in my hand,
I knew God had given me a gift for life.
And soon you gave two handsome boys,
God, we felt, was always very kind;
There was no end to our collective joys,
As we look at the times that are behind.
Today is the day we can look back with pride,
At everything that started with your birth;
All throughout God has been on our side,
Filling our cup with His bounties and mirth.
Music has been our passion dear Lyn,
And I feel we made great music together;
With that, even when down we could win,
And get over all the rough weather.
So today on your birthday, once again,
I give you our pet song of years gone by;
Come sunshine, storm or rain,
Our love would always make us fly.
Happy Birthday my sweetest darling,
May happiness and health be always on your side;
May you always ride on Love’s wing,
And look back at life with joys and pride.
What a lovely ode. Wishing you a very happy birthday dear Lyn. May you both be blessed with ‘unginit’ years of togetherness.
Happy birthday Lyn. Can’t really add much more to the tribute that Ravi sir has crafted. Wishing you good health and many many more years of happiness. With love from Anil & Sandra.
Thank you very much, Sir. Lyn conveys her thanks too. Regards
Thank you Anil and Sandra. Very sweet of you. Lyn conveys her thanks and love.
Nice poem, Ravi sir. You have said all that there is to told. But where and when exactly did the Love Story begin? How did cupid get the two of you in one spot so that he could weave his magic band and make you fall in love? Why not add these details in another nice poem?
Thank you, Jojy. I have written several posts on it. You can read one of these: http://www.sunbyanyname.com/2015/03/24/lyn-and-i-scene-by-scene/
