Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday


Don’t count your age with numbers
But by the joys you’ve felt.
The sorrows that have shaped your life
The times your heart would melt.

Forget us not, a single dream
Or wish upon a star.
Remember each and everything
That makes you who you are.

As we trek the path that’s chosen
When we approach the final gate.
Remember, it’s not the destination
It’s all the memories we create!
