Grandpa is the smartest person I've ever known,
he is like a library on legs and it shows,
he has written many a fine and good book,
and the answer to any question he instinctively knows.
And you've also been an angel,
you've lived up faithfully to your name,
you've played it by the book,
you've followed the rules of the game.
You both love God, your church family and studying the bible,
and the good book has so very often, shown you the way,
and we're thankful for your many prayers together,
you've helped so many (and you've always known just what to say).
Exactly one month from that first meeting day,
I looked you up in an e-mail address book,
I must admit I'd been driving by your house,
just in the hope I'd get a wave or a look.
But enough of the book,
What about you ?
(WEIGHT) pounds of magic,
Born (DATE).
Because I think that short novel is over my friend,
and now there's a new book, just waiting to unfold,
and I'm so looking forward to our future,
and to our marvelous stories, as yet unwritten and untold.
You've traveled the world with The Good Book,
you've boldly gone where motor homes haven't gone before,
you've delivered food, clothes and God's love,
I'm sure that they'll remember you for evermore.
Mom is my Mother Theresa,
Dad is always there like a fatherly sage,
and their advice is always valued,
if it were a book we'd treasure every page.

My Parents
You have always been there for us,
have taught us right from wrong,
have taught us God's word,
have taught us his song.
You are very special parents,
and could never have been cursed,
you've had five beautiful children,
and have always put them first.
But you have big and generous hearts,
and you are so unselfish and giving,
you make the world a better place,
you make life itself worth living.
You were <Number> when I was born,
some would say past your prime,
but you gave me everything I needed:
Your energy, your skills and your time.
I haven't been the perfect child,
and I'm sorry that I caused you grief,
but you have shown me the right book,
and now I'm taking out a leaf.
And now I have my memories,
and my heart silently soars,
because my friends used to say:
"I wish I had parents like yours."
I would like to thank God,
because we have been truly blessed.
There is no other way of putting it:
You are simply the best !
You've still got a great figure,
and take pride in how you look,
you obviously divide your time,
between your beauty and the old cookery book !
Today, the world is in troubled times,
but it should take a leaf out of your book,
it should look at what has made your marriage a success,
and then it should take another closer look.
I love the way you take your Baby Book to the library,
I love how you always want to fix everything,
even those things that you have no control over,
these are just some of the many joys that you bring.
And life sometimes just goes and happens,
and the pages, like a book, just go and unfold,
and there's many a story that could have been,
there's many a story un-happened and untold.
And this little book is a special compilation,
actually, it's the perfect celebration of your life,
because you've been a simply wonderful stepmother,
and of course, you've been a loving and devoted wife.

Our Pastor (NAME) is always a buzz,
when he helps (NAME) around the house,
Unless he finds a good book;
Then he's as quiet as a mouse!
As I try and write a few lines,
For your book called Thomas the Tank,
I am so very, very happy,
And I don't know who to thank.

<TITLE OF YOUR POEM>
Hello, my wonderful handsome prince,
these words are just for you,
because I'm proud of who you are,
and yes, I'm very proud of what you do.
And now you've served your time in <PLACE>,
(but you refused treatment not to let down the team),
and I just wanted you to know that you're my hero,
you really are my perfect man, my ideal dream.
We have known each other for <NUMBER> years now,
and I loved you for all that time (with all my heart),
although we could not be together for all of those years,
it was only mere circumstance that kept us apart.
We share a love that is so special and so close,
it's like we can read and feel each other's mind,
and I know a love like ours is so very rare,
it's a precious treasure and so very hard to find.
This is the most amazing thing I've ever felt,
with you, I feel closer to the heavens above,
because with you, I've experienced the firmament,
with you, I've known the wonder of your love.
The last <NUMBER> years have been simply wonderful,
even if we weren't together for all of that time,
and I knew how much danger you were in,
I'm just so glad that there's still words to rhyme.
Just know that I also love <NAME> very much,
and I also know that you're one very proud Dad,
you make a great father, you're a true inspiration,
in fact, you're the finest father any son's ever had.
has so much, to so few, been owed.
I'm looking forward to the day when we will be together
when you're next to me, no longer interstate,
just know that I'd nurse you forever and a day,
after all, you are my one and only soul-mate.
Now, I know that I have my blond moments,
and that's something you've been known to tease me about,
but I just wanted to say that this blond thinks you're so handsome,
and you're beautiful on the inside (as well as the out).
I know that you hate it when you open up to me,
but believe me, don't leave that stuff inside,
because I tell you what I feel when I think of you,
I have this enormous and magnificent sense of pride.
We've had crazy, fun times down at <PLACE>,
<PLACE>, <PLACE>, <ACTIVITY> and doing <ACTIVITY> together,
memories that are very precious to me,
and ones that'll last forever and ever.
I love it when you sing to me,
and we both realize we've seen the sign,
I have never loved anyone like I love you,
I'm just so happy that you're mine.
The connection I can feel with you is electric,
you are my amazing lover, my very best friend,
and not only will I love you to the moon and back,
I'll love you long after I find the Universal end.
And I'm so glad that you're back home safe,
because I've never really said just how wonderful you are,
but if my love for you were a distance,
then it would be further than the furthest star.
And I just wanted to say Happy Birthday
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you <NAME>, you're so funny, so wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love for evermore.
