TO EMMY, ON HIS BIRTHDAY




The creator took his time on you,
Aye! He crafted you to love and be loved,
And when you smile and laugh,
You show and fill the world
 With a measure of that beauty.

At birth, you came out of the womb
And filled the world with the cry of your voice,
And now, you look handsome and beautiful
Like the choices you made over the years
That will continue to raise you higher in life.

Snuff out the candles of your cake,
As you make your wish to your maker.
Aye! Cut your cake into two,
And feed your family and friends
With the measure of your unending love.
