I had just wrote a b-day poem for a friend we know- 4/2/24

'Ode to the Spring Chicken ' by Henry Gibson

"Oh, Spring Chickie, today's your day.... B-day cake with a 'touch of gray!''
"Maybe a nap, maybe a walk.... maybe a call with some 'chit-chat talk."
"No matter how it goes, we just say, 'Praise the LORD ', & have a blessed day!"
