Its your birthday,
Its the time of year,
I can’t believe it’s already here!
So make a wish,
Upon the candle stick,
Just close your eyes and imagine it.
Now blow out the fire,
And open your eyes,
For what you desire,
Will be a surprise!

Lord Jesus, Thou hast known
A mother’s love and tender care:
And Thou wilt hear, while for my own
Mother most dear I make this birthday prayer.
Protect her life, I pray,
Who gave the gift of life to me;
And may she know, from day to day,
The deepening glow of Life that comes from Thee.
As once upon her breast,
Fearless and well content I lay,
So let her heart, on Thee at rest,
Feel fears depart and troubles fade away.
Her every wish fulfill;
And even if Thou must refuse,
In anything, let Thy wise will,
A comfort bring such as kind mothers use.
Ah, hold her by the hand,
As once her hand held mine;
And though she may not understand,
Life’s winding way, lead her in peace divine.
I cannot pay my debt,
For all the love that she has given;
But Thou, love’s Lord, wilt not forget,
Her due reward, bless her in earth and heaven.

I extend to you this Birthday wish,
and hope your day is fine,
I remembered you, on your Birthday,
so I hope you remember mine,
So accept this poem, from me to you,
with everything it’s for,
Have the happiest of Birthdays today,
and I wish you many more.

Happy birthday brother,
It’s the big double digits
Your cake is yummy chocolate
It’s been your favorite since six.
My baby brother it’s a big day
I wish you could get presents
But your friends forget today
And mum’s tears have drowned it.
I sing the song without their help
And look you in the eye
I wish I could see you smiling
And wish I wouldn’t cry.
I take a piece of cake, it’s too big for one
I put some in front of your face
I wait till you eat it up
But your face is frozen in place.
I’m starting to get frustrated
Telling you to eat and eat
I even get so angry and mad
That I stand from my tattered seat.
“Eat it now, it’s your birthday!”
I yell and scream
But your face is mocking back at me
This fantasy is just another dream.
“Happy birthday my brother,
I hope you can see me now
I hope you’re looking down from heaven
And notice my unhappy frown.”
I eat my cake, sing the tune
And whisper one more goodbye
It’s been months, I wish you didn’t go
Today you’re suppose to be alive.
I walk away from the photo I took
Why were you so unhappy that day?
I don’t even have a photo of your happiness
For your special birthday.
