When an Angel is Born

What, for lack of words
Can a man so distant say
But a truly Happy Birthday
To an Angel so deserving
Of eternal happiness

What soothing serenades
Can a heart so captured sing
When love,
Though so far removed
Flourishes thru’ the vastness
of transatlantic engagements

.... Happy Birthday Reginah.

You will celebrate this milestone
Yet another stride closer to perfection
Immerse yourself in this (our) celebration
You must savour this moment Babylov
And do not allow the hassles of/for tomorrow
to steal away its fleeting magic

What else, for lack of words
does a man so favoured by destiny say
On the birthday of a being so very special?

Yet like before,
I know you will prevail
Upon the roughest of tempests

Still I know
That in the darkest of moments
and the coldest of nights
The radiance of your Big Heart
will shine you thru’
And when the sun rises tomorrow
You will stretch your gifted hands
To claim your earned victory
Forever assured
In this world,
In my world
And in our world,
Forever assured of a place so secure
For that was the promise!!

Happy Birthday Honeywell
Now, And always.
