Poetic Asides celebration, Bref Double


Celebration

December twenty-eighth’s a special day
The day I birthed one of my greatest joys
And though you are five hundred miles from home
I’ll celebrate the gift you are to me

I sent a card with all that I can say
And there won’t be celebratory noise
And there won’t be cake, candles, and ice cream
But I will think of each glad memory

The wide-eyed girl who spoke in high-pitched voice
The long-haired teen who liked to play the flute
The college student with the perfect grades
My life-long friend who holds that fun is key

And so I’ll think of you and truly pray
Lord, greatly bless her with all she enjoys
