Happy Birthday Dad (Original)

Today, dad would have been
your ninety-fifth birthday.
Had you won that battle

way back in ninety-five.

The cake of the day I'll create 
the one that we've always made.
In honor of your special day. 

So as I sit here today,

wishing you Happy Birthday.

Though you're no longer here

in body and mind.

This I know, your spirit still 
stands beside me as I go through
the challenges surrmounting.

Dad you know you'll always be
the most important man to me.
May you now rest in peace.

Just a quick note to tell the world
that you were and are my number one.
So today as I write, I'll celebrate

Happy Birthday Dad,

you're sorely missed,

wish you were here so I 
could give you a hug and a kiss.
