Elizabeth's
Birthday Gifts
By
Faye Von Tress Garmon
We could throw
a big party...make a big fuss...
But the biggest surprise is the gifts
she gives us.
Her feathery flute she need not
rehearse.
The music God plays on His universe
Fills her soul with some lyrics
she'll gladly "disburse".
When she comes upon someone bent over
with care,
She prays that the load is a thing
she can share--
And they both stand up taller because
of her prayer.
For God and for family...for numerous
friends...
Her love is a stream that flows
without end.
Fate tries to divert it, but Fate
never wins.
Thank you, Elizabeth, for your Love.
I take out my gift box, when I'm
weary with care--
A treasure chest full of Love, Music,
and Prayer.
