Yours Merry Day

This is a wish for the birthday of a special one of poet.

And here the day comes,

Full of joy and mirth.

Such events betimes rare,

When legends takes birth.

Here this meek poet,

Mere with his paper and pen;

Can bestow blissful blessings,

Only to the image he ken.

‘O God! Shower your drops

Of boons and benefactions.

Pour down your gifts in his life

And lave him with your protection.'

Enjoy your day, my mate;

And leave no stone unturned-

To achieve an astounding aim

For which you are too concerned.

I don't know many poets who achieve "legend" status. Few are those who are even known in their own lifetimes. So many like John Donne and Emily Dickinson are only known after their deaths. I doubt there are many people who could even name two poet laureates of the United States like Richard Wilbur who just passed away just this October at the age of 96. But I do hope your friend reads this touching honor and tribute.

Your friend must feel very honored to get such a birthday tribute! I like the way your writing blends the sound of old-time classic poets, but with an injection of youthful energy that feels modern too. Good rhyme & rhythm. Fondly, Margie
