To Peter - Happy Birthday!

I got the word a few days ago that our Blogger friend, Peter, is having a birthday so decided to write this little poem!

( It's a JunieRose thing, you know!! :) )

Hope it's a good one Peter...and hope you find this poem!

To Peter - Happy Birthday


Today is the day
-for those who don’t know-
when Peter was born…
those long years ago.

Merle is his sister
and sweet as can be.
I’ve thought about Peter!
What sort lad, was he?

Was he full of mischief,
or calm and serene?
Did he play tricks on sister
…a nice boy- or mean?

Was he handsome and smart?
I’d think he would be…
because of this, present day,
Peter we see! :)

He’s had his adventures
and is willing to share…
all the places he’s been
and the fun he’s had there!

Peter always is helpful
with us folks - unknowing.
He eagerly advises,
and leaves us all glowing!
(LOL- When our ignorance is showing!)
(... alternate line here!!)

His love of his family is
a joy to behold…
with the pictures and memories
and stories he’s told!

So - to our friend, Peter,
hope your birthday is grand!
If only I could
I would strike up the band! :)
