Happy birthday to a special friend! Although I haven't known you many years, Perhaps because you've dried so many tears, Pleasure reigns as I these greetings send. Your happiness should last till all things end! Because you've been so sweet and understanding-- In toughest times you've made me laugh and smile-- Rejoice in your own specialness awhile: This I'm not requesting but demanding! How else to make yourself the celebration, Doing what does not come naturally? Always your concern has been for me, Yet now you must endure my adoration!
