What a wonderful gesture and tribute Yvette. It was great of you to wish Birthday blessings to Barbara. I really liked the rhyme pattern and the various font colors, the colors bring life to the words.

Thanx so much, Alie, for the encouraging review on this one -- I tried to focus on the small things that really bring a gentleness to the day whether you're alone or not, ya know? Things that can always make us smile no matter the circumstances... :) :) :) Take care out there and find your own 'sunshine and whistles' today! ;) Yvette

I REALLY love this; I feel that Hallmark would love it too. Through a lovely blend of literal and figurative language, you have penned a moving and delightful birthday wish.

I'd be so flattered if someone wrote such a lovely birthday poem for me. This is a lucky person! I've wrote a few verses for cards, but never one as nice as this. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hello Yvette.
You've made this a colorful and lyrical birthday card full of good wishes. In particular, I like the " Faint whispers of your fav'rite song" line because that is a great way to reminisce on a birthday. I actually do that. Listening to old favorite songs can highlight and amplify old memories.

Comment from Iza Deleanu
Very lovely Birthday poem, and this stanza resonates totally with myself, I can almost feel the sun and the happiness filling our cold morning:"Hefty pockets full of sunshine
that last throughout the day,
Soft dribbled drops of happiness,
to add laughter on your way..." Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

Comment from Alchera
I love " your shining sunflower's soft dribbled drops of happiness, that adds laughter on Barbara's way...
and
"of friendships dear, both here and gone,
may thoughts of them caress
your heart and mind and spirit too
with love and thankfulness!
Happy Birthday, Barbara!"
What else could I add to your well thought written world's celabration words? A good job!

Comment from Loren .
I never seem to know who these folks are and what's going on in FS world. Guess I need to get on the Grapevine to hear about these things.
Great tribute, by the way. Your heart is showing again (smile). Loren

LOL! Yeah, I seem to find out 'second hand', but this is just one of those things for me to 'get back into the swing of things'... I used to enjoy my FS writing routine and things just got away from me this summer -- and the therapy my pen provides is certainly showing this past week or so: need my escape and to feel like I can actually accomplish something.... ;) ;) ;) And I should reach across cyberspace to knock your hat off with your final comment there (wink, wink - grins) ... you'll ruin the image people have of me if that gets out! But I cannot thank you enough for saying so...
Take care over there!! ;) Yvette
