Love's every day

Where humankind is frail, love most abounds,
Responding in a fashion that astounds.
The sick, the victims, all who are oppressed,
Turn beneficiaries of the best.

Within a world of strife and imperfection
New hope is offered by the selfless soul
Which seeks and finds and follows the direction
To where of many parts is made one whole.

Name day recurs

This day of extraordinary kind
Is yours to spend exactly as you find.
It is a day of high significance,
A day which brought a new magnificence
Whose sparkle has been destined to adorn
A world too sunk in grey till you were  born.

Happy Birthday, Amy

The Earth has sped and spun to reach this day -
The celebration of dear Amy's birth.
So let the clouds disperse and sunbeams play,
While seconds fill the dancing hours with mirth,
A mirth augmented by a newcome voice,
Bidding the ever-grateful heart rejoice.
