A Sonnet For Your Fiftieth Year.

Fifty years have graced your noble stride,

A journey carved with wisdom's steady hand.

Through fleeting storms and moments magnified,

You've shaped your path upon life's shifting sand.

My boy who once would dream of worlds untold,

Now stands a pillar, strong and ever wise.

Each step you've taken worth more than gold,

Resilience etched beneath life's vast skies.

My son, whose heart holds kindness deep and true,

The years to come will bloom as seasons pass.

With every sunrise, may your strength renew,

And moments cherished grow like verdant grass.

I raise a toast to fifty years you've earned,

A life of lessons lived, and love returned.
