Birthday Poem.

Goldfinch60



The envelope was opened

And inside was a card,

A card for my Birthday,

Birthday number seventy.

But within that card was a treasure,

A treasure full of words,

A poem written just for me.

It moved my mind,

It moved my heart,

As it entered my soul,

Showing me the glory,

The glory of good friends.

      A fine write Gold. I could be more evangelistic! Write poem stanzas in my Christmas cards. I better start now then (October)!
      How's the 1066 prep going? We'll see my brother and his girlfriend there. We'll let relatives in specially, though they were not there in person in 1066.

        My brother will not be coming, he thinks we're mad - my son is coming, he takes after me!

            Our birthday cards are so special, though the poem is divine.
