My Friend On Your Birthday
Dear friend, let me say
something on this special day
Though we are far apart,
Youâll be always in my heart.
I cherish those moments,
our silly fights and funny talks
and how we grew together,
stayed united in grief and laughter.
May your face always light up with glee.
I wish you never ever feel empty.
I pray, may God be always by your side.
I want you to always lift up your head in pride.
My friend, on your birthday,
all I want to say

and you are more than just a friend to me.

A Gift Of Friendship
Happy Birthday to my very best friend.
Your special day has come by again.
We had so much fun last time around.
A younger sister was someone I found.
Each year March 4th is a wonderful day,
As we march forth in our own fun way.
Just hanging around and laughing a lot;
It is truly amazing what we have got.
A friendship like ours is not easy to come by.
Often the intensity of it makes me so high.
Is our beautiful friendship really only a dream?
Sometimes it feels so unreal that I must scream.
Cries of joy and happiness galore,
And that is what I most adore.
Your infectious laughter and zest for life,
But I am there to keep you from strife.
How lucky we are to have found one another,
I couldnât spend so much time with any other.
I will always be there to watch over you,
To keep you safe and happy too.
Well, my dear, I wish you Happy Birthday once more,
An abundance of good wishes for you are in store.
A new year filled with lots of happiness and laughter,
And only the very best for you from here on after.

Birthday Wishes To A Friend
So many people live around you,
But not all get close to your heart.
Some become so dear
That with their thoughts, its beating starts.
You are the one to whom
Iâll give my care to the most.
Your absence makes me feel in life,
As if everything is completely lost.
Your birthday was in my mind,
Wishes though I couldnât convey.
There were so many hurdles
Standing tall in the way.
I have prayed for your good life
And mental peace with good health.
The rest of things are just temporary,
Only these will be your real wealth.

Funny Birthday Poems For Friends
If you and your friend love pulling each otherâs legs and making each other laugh out loud, share these funny birthday poems with them.
Beauty And The Botox
Happy birthday!
You may look a little older,
Sadly youth doesnât come cheap,
So skip all those Botox parties,
And just get your beauty sleep.
Be glad youâre young at heart,
And still, look as good as gold,
Too bad youâre not a millionaire,
And canât put your looks on hold.
Canât Remember
I wish you something, just canât remember,
Donât be upset; youâre my family member.
It was clearly, on my mind,
With so many thoughts, itâs hard to find.
Maybe itâs simply not that essential,
Please lose that frown; you have so much potential.
On second thought, it might be coming back to me,
Now I know why those brain pills were free.
Visions appear of colorful balloons,
In the background, I hear those fine tunes.
Near the end of the dream, I can taste a delicious cake,
It must be your birthday, as I awake.
Happy Birthday
Happy birthday to the cartoon I know,
You have so many stupid gestures to show,
Ok, donât get bugged; I was kidding, my dear,
Coz itâs your birthday, so spread the cheer,
Have the most amazing day of your life,
May God give me strength to survive,
With youâŠLol!
Getting Old On Your Birthday
It is indeed tough to stack candles on your cake,
For I am truly running out of space.
Itâs time we think of something new,
But I ensure Iâll make it so true.
Happy birthday dear friend
For genuine love and prayers, here I send.
Your Zoo
A birthday should always be a joyous occasion,
Family and friends; obvious invasion.
Duplicate gifts, you donât even like,
If you complain, might get a strike.
One simple day, placed on display,
Carefully observed for signs of decay.
Dishonest smiles, they donât mingle in truth,
As if you were the only, losing your youth.
At such a wise age, everything seems so clear,
Excuse to celebrate, they all came for beer.
Deep down inside, you know that they care,
Your Zoo is unique; normal is rare.
âMartin Dejnicki
The Best Face
Happy birthday!
Your birthday is a joyous occasion,
For family and friends, a special day,
A time to tell you how good you look,
As we check you for signs of decay.
Our loving, caring smiles tell no lies,
Our flattery has but a grain of truth,
When we say you look like a teen,
We mean youâre losing your youth.
Nobody gets out of here a beauty,
That should be clear at your stage,
Deep down inside, you know itâs true,
Even the best faces sag with age.

A Simple Birthday Wish
Happy birthday my dear friend
Hereâs a card to wish you well
It might just be a simple thing
But I think that you are swelling.
Dear Friend
Iâve spoken many lies.
Iâve broken many promises.
Iâve picked up many fights.
Iâve given you bad memories.
Yet, through this chaos.
By my side, youâve stood strong.
Backing me all the time
Even when you know, I was wrong
What did I do to deserve
Such a loyal friend, I have no clue
But one thingâs for sure, my life
Is nothing without you
Happy birthday

Happy Birthday, Special Treasure
God gave a gift to the world when you were bornâ
a person who loves, who cares,

who spends energy on others
rather than herself,
someone who touches each life she enters,
and makes a difference in the world,
because ripples of kindness flow outward
as each person you have touched, touches others.
Your birthday deserves to be a national holiday,
because you are a special treasure
for all that you've done.
May the love you have shown to others
return to you, multiplied.
I wish you the happiest of birthdays,
and many, many more,
so that others have time to appreciate you

Funny Guy
My funny guy, when I look at you,
Making faces, as you do,
To make me giggle, and keep me happy,

Who makes me laugh, because he can.

You're getting to be an old guy.

Birthday Star
I have gifts in my in my life;
One is my daughter!
If she'd cost me a fortune,
I still would have bought her!
Now, as we get older,
As birthdays go by,
I love her much more
Than there are stars in the sky.
She's the part of my life
That makes me feel I did fine,
And Iâll cherish that feeling,
In my heart, for all time.
So happy birthday, sweet girl,
My daughter, so dear;
I wish you more happiness
With each passing year.

Brother Birthday Poem
A brother is a good thing to have, so let's not forget a brother birthday verse!
Birthday Poem For Brother
I'm fortunate, and I'm glad
I got you for my brother;
Even if I had the chance,
I wouldn't pick another.
I'm happy you're in my life;
You're my winner, come what may.
May your birthday wishes come true
On your very special day.

Granddaughter Birthday Poem
You can customize this granddaughter birthday poem by substituting something like "pretty brown hair" for "pretty blond curls."
Special Granddaughter
There's someone we love,
Our special granddaughter;
She's sweet and she's nice,
Just like Dad and Mom taught her.
She's got a really cute smile
And pretty blond curls;
She's a wonderful person,
The best of all girls.
We're so glad she's ours;
We rejoice every day;
She's our angel granddaughter,
And we just want to say...
Happy Birthday (Name)!

Baby's First Birthday Poem
Birthday messages can be specific to someone's age. Here's a first birthday poem for baby.
Baby's First Birthday
It's your very first birthday, baby,
One candle on your cake;
Proud parents stare in wonder
At each new move you make.
We join in celebration,
As this special date arrives,
For baby has brought pleasure
Into all our lives.
We look forward now to seeing
How you progress and grow,
From the cute and tiny infant
You were one year ago.
So dig into your icing;
Enjoy your presents, too.
The reason for this day
Is a special person--you!

50th Birthday Poem
Birthday greetings for that big half century mark are popular. This 50th birthday poem celebrates that event.
The Big Five-Oh
So you are finally fifty;
Happy birthday on the big Five-Oh.
I guess you could fill a great big book
With everything you know.
A whole half century of living
Is nothing to sneeze about,
So if you're a little patched and worn,
Don't you dare frown or pout.
Ignore things that make you feel old;
It's really great to be fifty.
You're smart, attractive and good company,
And I still think you're nifty!
By Joanna Fuchs
There's an over-the-hill 40th birthday poem
There are lots of searches for a birthday prayer, so I wrote a birthday poem that is also a birthday blessing. If the person is "him," change "her" to "him."
A Birthday Prayer
Her birthday comes but once a year;
Lord, fill her day with joy and cheer;
This person who's so very dear,
Take care of her and keep her near.
Dear Lord in heaven, bless this day;
Protect this loved one, come what may;
Love her in your special way;
In Jesus' precious name I pray.
Amen.
