Happy Birthday Simon 47.

Goldfinch60



Well it’s come round again,

He is another year older.

My son has now reversed my age,

Me at seventy four this year,

Him at forty seven today,

This first day in July.

I saw him enter this earth

All those years ago

And throughout those years

We have been more than father and son,

We have been very good friends

And the love for each other shines,

Shines in our lives when together.

So on this day I wish him Happy Birthday

And send my love to him

With all my heart.

Happy Birthday Simon.

      A fine write Gold.
      Your birthday appears as 10/6 (month then day) on here.
      Mine is 2/18 (USA format). Maybe that appears normally?

      • Goldfinch60

        In the USA it is, but they cannot spell either, omitting U's all over the place.

      • orchidee

        If Simon was on here, his birthday would be January 7th (1/7).
        What am I waffling on about?!

        Congrats!
        'Happy Birthday to your Son!
        and many happy returns'
        cheers Andy, 🍻
