Another Birthday
by
Norma Jean Duncan
Your're a year older, so what
You're not ancient, you're not
Another year of experience to add
You're another year wiser, aren't you glad
Those candles on your cake are many
A lot better than not any
The grey in your hair can be a blessing
Or hide it and keep them guessing
Be proud of the years of your life
You have learned from troubles and strife
You could teach others a thing or two
That is if they would listen to you.
