A short birthday message to my lovely wife, Allison
It’s here, another birthday, somewhat inevitable but nevertheless it crept up very quickly.
When you were young you did not think you would make it this far,
Convention says that your best years are behind you but you will prove them wrong,
You may feel that you have lost your girlish spirit but I know you have not,
You feel that time has passed you by but you have lived every second to the full,
You expected to have more in your universe , but look who you brought into the world.
Where is all that ‘me’ time you may ask? Well, it is lavished on others who are richer for it,
You have not done everything you expected........ yet. There is plenty of time for that going ahead,
You are not the one asking but the person to whom others look for wisdom and experience,
You may feel tired and without energy but you are actually very much in your prime,
You wanted to make a noise and be heard but your true value is being able to listen,
You wanted to start a revolution. Who is to say that you have not?
You feel you have had your best half century already but it really continues today,
52, and counting.
