Twenty-One

by Valerie

Happy Birthday to me
Today I'm twenty-one!
I'm feeling quite old,
But my life has just begun.

Today is the big day
So put all worries aside
It's time to have some fun
And just enjoy the ride.

May life bring me happiness
With many years to come.
May I grow wiser
Until my years are done.

May love find my way
But not break my heart,
May my friends stay true
And our ways never part.

It's time to chase my dreams
And see what's in store.
Opportunities are knocking
For me to open the door.

I'm getting older and wiser
Twenty years have already flown
Childhood years have passed;
Now I'm on my own.

Happy birthday to me
It's time to have some fun.
Let the celebration begin
Today I'm twenty-one!!
