may you know all the pleasure that living can
bring
may love fill your heart like an artesian
spring
the one thing in life you must grab and take
hold
is the spirit of youth as your body grows old
may you discover the treasures that money can't
buy
like a cool summer breeze and baby's soft sigh
may your cold, dreary nights produce warm sunny
days
may the sword of true love chase the shadows
away
may you flow with the courage to follow your
dreams
may the sun light your path with a fountain of
beams
and when you can't see the faces for the masks
that they wear
remember there's people who really do care
when you're tired and lonely and want to go
home
with this poem in your heart, you won't face it
alone
may the shelters you dwell in, keep out the
rain
like the shield of true love will protect you
from pain
