A Birthday Poem

by Jeannie Parker
(Republic, Washington)

Today is a Birthday
We'll never forget,
For someone special,
Fiery, and fit.
Her humor, quick witted,
Her character..., true grit,
Never a moment of boredom
With her uncanny wit.
In comparison, there is
No one around,
From mountain to ocean,
Or all abound,
Could ever match up
To the fun we have found
In our good friend (name)...
The best (gal/guy) in town!
