A Friend So Dear (A Birthday Poem) Poem by Shruti Kumar

15 years ago you were out on a jaunt,
A journey of life, a mission of want.
To change the world a little by little;
Sometimes smooth, sometimes fickle.

Today is a day to forever recall,
In this world so huge; yet so small.
Because a pretty, little girl entered the world,
As sweet as honey, as valued as an emerald.

So these are the moments to cherish, to celebrate,
For, I have a friend so dear, cool and great!
All I pray, is that you are blessed so well,
By love of God and remain happy wherever you dwell.

May He help you succeed in your life,
Be with you in times of struggle and strife,
In simple words, I have a message to convey -
Wish you a very happy, momentous birthday!
