On This Day Poem by Kenneth Davis

On This Day by Kenny Davis

On this day
Of this special occasion
Gathered in admiration
And in glorious celebration

We acknowledge and cheer
In the news of your birth
All of the wonderful years
God blessed you with on this earth

Through all the heartache
Through all of the tears
Still praising God for
You seeing another year

Another year gone
Another year older
Another year wiser
And another year bolder

We gather together
To honor you in love
Knowing none of it was possible
Without that of God above

All of the cake and ice cream
Gifts and presents in the world
Could never fully express just
How much we all love you girl

We don’t just celebrate
The memories of you through time
We also cherish the day
God brought you into our lives

End to beginning
As another year passes away
We thank God for blessing us with you
On this day
