Happy 'sixteen' Poem by Donald Ngonyo

Happy is the 'wish'
Wrapped with blessings,
Offered to a best friend
Who offers what's real-themselves

To nurse friendship with meekness
Chase enmity with charity
Keepin' goodness at bosom
Ever sharin' the best
Happy Birthday!

Happy sixteen, so girls say!
Happy, blessed, enjoy
Life's good, blow the candles!
When sunlit dims
Let hope beam

Move on with faith
Along the straight path
Live, have bliss
Enjoy, never cuss
Take heart, when hurt
Behold, you are bles'd

Happy Birthday,
Sweet sixteen
Lick the honey
And grow to be a teen!

Happy Birthday!
The LORD bless you and keep you!
