Birthday Chime

It’s almost

Time

To ring the

Birthday chime

To celebrate

Another

Year of living.

Forty-six years

Of blood

Sweat and tears

And joy

That’s been

Fulfilling.

No turning

Back now

Just wave

To the crowd

Of years

That’ve gone

Away.

Just raise

A glass

Say “Adios”

To the past

It’s almost

My birthday.
