A friend of mine once did say It's by great chance we are here today That through all the events that went before We came to be is quite rare that’s for sure
Imagine the odds for us to arrive at this time To mark with me this special place in time That I might gather such dear friends as you To celebrate this year of life with you
Your presence reminds me how blessed I am That you chose to come and watch this program To spend with me your greatest treasure And spend your time on this night of pleasure
Did you know the love you show fills this aching heart And piece by piece your love has healed this lonely heart You made me feel alive, wanting to do my part To share how you mended this man’s broken heart
Abused, confused and so unsure I didn’t know Of love and friends oh so very dear Your love broke those walls so well built And showed the way to end the guilt.
We all have walked this road built through the ages Traveled by our ancestors and great sages Day by day year by year time slowly moved to this day So we could gather here this night this way.
So let’s enjoy this time we share While we are with those of whom we care For the times we spend together is so very rare And today joy and love we will gladly share.

Realizing I have made comments on the four that are currently at the top, while bypassing and nearly-purposely avoiding yours, I felt a hint of shame for my selfish selectiveness. Have you ever been on a train where the ride was so smooth you thought for a moment, 'what could go wrong?'.....Only to find the train has just derailed, and that seemingly-smooth ride has now become a potential life-ending disaster? Lol. Just Candying.....I love rollercoasters that have smooth, as well as bumpy elements in their construction. Again, don't take my comments to heart, I just feel some commentation is better than none. There are some really well-written lines in this.,,,and I am only serious half the time.
