• It does not seem a year
  Since last we sent to you
  Our wishes for your special day
  And all that you would do.
  And once again we wish you
  All joyous things and more
  A day that's filled with happiness
  And memories to store.
  Then when you think in years to come
  Of Birthdays long ago
  You may remember fondly
  How much we love you so.
  So have a day of pleasure
  Do things that make you smile
  For .............. you are treasured
  Today and all the while.
