It feels like you are very far,
But you always remain in our heart.
”Enjoy your day and eat lots of cake as we say”.
It’s a shame we can’t awake you with a morning call
To ambush you into the wall.
Wear those clothes that are in style,
But above all, keep that sweet smile.
I know there will be selfies to take,
But do you have to take a thousand for goodness sake?!
Let your inner-child run wild,
It will feel as though a thousand mountains you will have climbed.
Even though you will have remained inside.
So yes, spend your day with a good amount of joy well-earned,
And many happy returns!
