A birthday should be full of cheer,
that gets you through from year to year.
But it seems as we get older,
the summer gets hotter, the winter gets colder.

That might just be a sign of aging,
our bodies not used to rearranging.
But birthdays are a blessing in disguise,
to the Christian who is Christ-wise.

So sit down now and enjoy this day,
it’ll be a year before another comes your way.
