A cute poem for Rhonda's birthday. I'm glad she and Wayne are still together to celebrate her special day. You said it well in the final stanza. God has been good to them. Thanks for sharing. Blessings. Carol

Hi Carol, I wanted something fun and different for Rhonda so I went with the two rhymed modified quatern. I was hoping that everyone noticed that all the songs I mentioned were all the videos I used for her. This is the strangest one I think I ever have done, but she needed silly today. Haha.

Thanks again, my dear friend for all your kind comments. Love, Debi

I love the fun vibe and humour in this Birthday greeting. I try, when I can to write small poems for my family and friends on their birthdays. I think the personal touch is so much more than the simple Have a happy Birthday or generic card we all send.

Hi Pam, hey, I have been meaning to ask you if that is a picture of you and your husband or just a classic picture? It is so cool.

And you always have such kind things to say, and I am so appreciative of them. I wanted something fun and different for Rhonda so I went with the two rhymed modified quatern. I was hoping that everyone noticed that all the songs I mentioned were all the videos I used for her.
Oh yeah, I see Pat Boone from time to time, LOL.

This is the strangest one I think I ever have done, but she needed silly today. Haha.

Thanks again, my dear friend for all your kind comments. Love, Debi

No, the picture is one I created from a prompt. I like it a lot and decided to keep it instead of changing it like I was doing.

I think it was good that you did "funny and different. I'm sure Rhonda appreciated it, as well as the songs and videos. You did a really good job! Have a great day and rest of your week.

Oh my gosh, Debi, I didn't just tear up, I have tears rolling down my cheeks!!!!! You are so precious.

Wayne is here beside me in the hospital bed, worried he's ruining my birthday. I told him if things had been different, it would have, but he survived and is mostly well. That's a true birthday gift.

And now, this sweet poem with the music is so, so, kind!!!

Thank you from the bottom of my yellow rose heart!!! You've brought brightness to this day. Tears are still flowing!!!!!

Oh, and I love Martin Short!!!

You have no idea how much I needed this!!!

Happy birthday, Rhonda. I haven't kept up with all the updates on Wayne, but I, like others, have kept you in my prayers. I hope all is well there, and I hope you have a wonderful birthday.

Thanks, Debi for the "quadtern", lol! Rules are meant to be broken, right?

Have a great weekend, everyone.

Now, who would know that better than the woman who shares my birthday. After all it had to be in the stars, right?? Well, it is for me. I am a bit of a rebel, believe it or not.

It was beyond sweet and very special for Rhonda, and of course, Debi, you put all your heart into it. Rhonda deserves the best birthday ever and so much more. I pray that the next year is filled with the best blessings the Lord can give both her and Wayne.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RHONDA
All my thoughts, prayers and love,
Carol
