Cards,
Roses, chocolates...
Fourth of July ( Senryu)
Sky rockets at night...
Happy sixteenth birthday Andrew,
it's hard to believe your sixteen today...
I'm sitting here listening to my speakers,
The music is screaming; touching me...
Will you walk me down the isle
To give me away...
Eyes filled with sadness and worry
Face canvassed in wrinkles...
My young man with a heart of gold
blessed we feel to have you with us...
Expensive presents wrapped in fabric
Striped candy canes swirling with taste...
Merry Christmas to all of you.
During the holiday season...
She is the one with an open tender arms
who cures every ache in her embrace...
Years of struggle seems far away
as moments bring us close...
