Happy Birthday {to Me}

Mar 6, 2014 · 28 Comments

Happy Birthday to Me,
Happy Birthday to Me,
Happy Birthday dear Me,
Happy Birthday to Me!!!

~

There was a little girl; pretty and sweet
She was lace and sweet tea with a scrape on her knee
The ribbons grew shorter as the years grew a bit longer
Her figure be slender and her voice quite soft
She lived in a dream which kept her aloft
The one with a beautiful seascape that sunsets dipped off
Her childlike heart remained through the years; though there be tears
She watched the ships sail to and fro, though she never got to go; she waits
She still is the little girl pretty and sweet
She still is the little girl though the prince she never did meet
Her heart still tender, though not untouched
Her heart has been broken through the words unspoken
She smiles through the miles
And knows not where her ribbons have gone
 She keeps her heart guarded for it is fragile
For she still is the little girl who fell
The little girl who wanted so much to tell
The little girl who comes to Thee with the scraped knee
Catherine
