Happy birthday Sheila Smith, from all of us to you,
I hope you have a lovely year, of being 72!
I love you Nan, you're the best, that there could ever be,
...
In a distant, faraway land
Lies a creature of infinite worth
It grows forever and ever,
It’s a being as old as the earth
...
Mixed up feelings, blended thoughts, circling my head,
Forever spinning, never winning, emotions in the red,
Extreme confusion, heartbeat pounding, thumping like a drum,
...
This must be love that I am feeling, when my heart begins to flutter,
This must be love that I am feeling, as my lips begin to mutter,
This must be love that I am feeling, as my body starts to shake,
...
Plain and simple in my view
Normality through and through
The same as others mine was not
...
As sun rises upon this land through purple clouds and flirting sparrows
Rain stops dripping, kids start skipping as gardeners fill their barrows
A masked crusader upon a pink horse goes galloping over hills
...
It’s hard to cry a tear, for a person you resent,
It’s hard to shout and scream, yet hard to stay content,
It’s hard to say “I hate you” when to them you are related,
...
In a mystical land where the rain fails to sprinkle, and rainbows fail to glow,
The stars in the sky have lost their twinkle, the wind can’t seem to blow,
The sun it hangs, up in the sky yet doesn’t know how to shine,
...
As wind blows and leaves rustle, always have a smile on your face
As rain falls and roads flood, the water you should, try to embrace,
As the world fights and war breaks out, be sure to keep peace in your heart
...
As crimson kiss moon clouds fill the sky, over emotions of a velvet black night,
Earl grey seagulls soar past one another piercing the glowing moonlight
With large splashes of powder blue waves and faint echoes of a life faraway,
...
