On My Birthday

On the day of my birth date
I see wrinkles on my face
showing the years I have lived


On the day of my birth date
my children are my candles
that light my days and nights
that shine through my cloudy sky


On the day of my birth date
I received warm wishes
showing loves given to me
from the friendships offered
truthfully........


On the day of my birth date
I don't need presents
I don't need parties
I only need you...
my love


On the day of my birth date
I cried a tear
thanking the Almighty
for the years I have lived
for the friendships offered
for the candles of my life
for the man I love
for the years to come........
