A bday poem for my friend

Happy Birthday Amy
April, 2011

On this day in history,
Back in 1975 …
The world became blessed,
as Amy became alive.

She graduated Monacan High,
then UVA – then ODU –
And the way that I see it,
there’s nothing she can’t do.

She’s a daughter and a mother,
little Jeffrey is her world…
embracing life, head on –
her beauty is unfurled!

She’s a fitness gladiator …
Or ‘fit chic’ as she goes by,
with eating right and exercise,
she could easily catch your eye.

She does marathons, triathlons,
Spinning…and other things …
She’s always up for a challenge,
to see what this life brings!

She’s a blogger on the web,
and a friend in the heart …
a loyal Catholic soul,
she strives to do her part.

“Start Strong, Finish Stronger”,
is what you’ll hear her say - -
whether she’s finishing up a race,
or simply winding out the day!

So Happy Birthday Amy - -
You deserve all that is fine,
Whether it’s coconut M&M’s,
Or birthday cake and wine !
