Happy Birthday to the Matriarch

Happy Birthday to the Matriarch 2/14/2023

Aunt Lee recited a poem on your birthday, years ago;

She was holding back tears of love.

It was one of so many days of thanks, you know;

The gatherings forever blessed by G-d above,

 

Time rolls on and we wonder how;

In spite of those trials and tribulations;

We got to where we are now;

You have earned and deserve the joyful jubilation.

 

Always genuine and for real;

Time goes by and we cherish the memories we have found;

Among us: Sam, Randy, Lynn, Digger and the rowdies of Deel;

So lucky and so happy to have you around.

 

Amid the countless celebration and salutations;

Broken in times of sadness;

You temper with calibrations;

You remind us all to embrace the happiness.

 

With a tenderness anyone can feel;

We can’t thank you enough for what you mean in our lives;

Although stoic at times, your affection is so very real;

We cannot thank you enough, no matter how many tries.

 

The benevolent Matriarch with hearts and smiles;

You have done so much to enrich all of our lives;

Thank you for being on this journey for so many miles.

We cannot thank you enough, no matter how many tries!
