Happy Birthday!

I'm sorry, dear sister, for the time that has passed,
For the wishes I held but forgot to send fast,
Life pulled me along in its tide rushing by,
But my love for you, sister, will never run dry.

May this birthday bring laughter that fills up the air,
May roses and sunshine follow you everywhere,
May every sweet dream nestled deep in your heart,
Bloom into a story, a beautiful work of art.

Here's to you, dearest sister, so gentle and true,
The world is far brighter because it holds you,
May joy be your blanket and peace be your song,
May happiness find you your whole lifetime long.
