Birthdays are for Celebrating!

Birthdays I do not hate

Today's a day to celebrate!

Although I  need to calculate

Am I 67 or 68?

Can you relate?

I'll leave that for your debate.

I definitely qualify for the Senior's plate,

Although I'm far from eager to lie in a crate.

God will have to wait

To welcome me at the Heavenly gate.

Today I deliberate

All the goodness of my God

For which I do not rate.

He's given me a loving mate

Three children who turned out great

Eleven grands my heart is sate

Another on the way. I cannot wait!

Thankful my heart Jesus did penetrate

He arrived on time — He's never late.

Jesus has a plan for your life. It isn't fate.

He loves you, for He knows no hate.

He will lift those burdens from your plate.

If you ask Him today, you won't have to wait.

Thank you for helping me celebrate

My birthday number 68

If the Lord allows, it will be just fine

To celebrate birthday number 69.

May God splash serenity on your birthdays! Thank you for your love and prayers for me as we journey together through the splashes! I love you back!

Happy Birthday Poem to Me

 

Every year on my birthday I like to write a poem just for fun.
Hope you enjoy celebrating my birthday with me!


Don't fall on the floor.

Don't gasp or abhor!

I'll cut to the core.

Today I'm 64.

 

I am not poor.

I purr instead of snore.

I didn't vote for Al Gore.

So much to thank God for.

 

So happy I just want to roar!

Booksales sometimes soar.

This I know for sure,

My God is not folklore.

 

A son came home from the war.

A husband I adore.

I'm a Tigger, not an E'yore.

Grandchildren two times four.

 

Life is not a bore.

I'm celebrating at the shore.

Don't show me the door.

If God grants me one more,

 

I'll still be alive

to celebrate 65!

Splashes of Serenity every day of the year hoped for you!

My Birthday Poem to Me

With a big "Yippee!"
And a Happy Birthday to me!
I'm thankful to say I'm 63!

I feel so free!
Finally figured out God's will for me.
Don't feel bad, I plea.
I'm glad to be alive, you see.

And so much more to be!
Oh my, still haven't snorkeled the Caribean sea!
More grandbabies to hold on my knee.
Lots of meals to eat at the Senior's fee.
No problem putting a golf ball on its tee.
Still lovin' my hubby--hee, hee, hee!

I thank God for thee
Who have walked roads with me.
Thanks for your prayers and cups of tea.
You are all so special--golly!
I'm blessed by your love unconditionally.

Life is all just Splashes of Serenity!

Looking forward with glee
To 12 months more
When I can announce I'm 64!

Happy Birthday to me!

Elaine
