Special Birthday Wishes
Lifes' surprises

Life will take us where it will
No matter what we say
It surprises us at every turn
As we celebrate each day

Looking back throughout the years
We see where we have been
Our accomplishments that we hold dear
And our failures we don’t want seen

Today we celebrate a special man
Who is 60 years of age
His life has been full of ups and downs
Which he has handled like a sage

Discussions he has are many
Spiritual and probing too
He challenges our every thought
And probes all that we do

His goal in life it seems to be
Is to make us think and feel
To give more of ourselves
So that we may be real

We send you all our good wishes
And hope you enjoyed what we say
We are sorry we cannot be with you
On this, your special day
