in truth, I think she taught us all how to live.
Our telepathy is such a beautiful gift,
and it's one that I treasure and behold,
and I'm so looking forward to our future,
to our future stories, as yes unwritten and untold.
Actually, no expense was spared and the day was wonderful,
beautiful, fun, everyone danced, drank and had a great time,
you danced on the tables, you drank from the chocolate fountain,
but more than that, you managed to put the reason in my rhyme.
You have this habit, no, like we said, it's a wonderful gift,
you have an ability to put the air under people's wings,
and a few words from you can make our hearts soar,
but that's only part of the magic that (NAME) brings.
You are the greatest gift on earth,
in fact, a gift from God above,

So thanks ? to the owners,
For their cash, dedication and support,
Their kind of loyalty,
Is a gift that can?t be bought.
And you're such a perfect gent, a true romantic,
your little presents always give me a such lift,
and you've told me that even when we're married,
you said that you'll still make a point of giving me a gift.

So know that I've finally forgiven you,
(and that's a pretty good place to start),
and please accept my birthday gift of love,
some forgiving words from the heart !
Maybe we should have put it in our gift baskets,
but I guess we were busy enough just with the flowers,
I remember Dad helping mom and I with the deliveries,
and he'd still make us laugh (after working all hours).
She loved the Lord and shared that gift with us all,

I remember your beautiful speech and the chocolates,
and never has there been a more thoughtful gift,
but I just got embarrassed and then pathetically angry,
now I just realize you were trying to give me a lift.
You enjoyed the nursery and playing at the Roma Club with your Dad,
and I know you always look forward to your mom's home cooked fare,
but what about grandfather's home filled hard rolls and jelly donuts?
But I guess I know your favorite (yes, it's a Pellagrino's chocolate ?clair).
Truly, I think you're a gift from God for (NAME) and I,
so gratefully, I will turn my eyes to the heavens above,
because I know I've been blessed to have shared you,
I know that I've been blessed with your love.

in truth, you've given the greatest gift, that's your time,
you still go to every school and sporting event,
truly, you've put the reason in every rhyme.
Your gift for entertaining is legendary,
it's what legends are all about,
you bring the whole family together,
Martha Stewart had better watch out!
Because he's always been so very compassionate,
he's like a good chocolate, soft but hard on the outside,
and I know I couldn't have chosen a finer husband,
I know I couldn't - even if I'd tried.
Well, I think "you", are indeed, my real gift,
because I love you truly, with all my heart and soul,
for with you in my life, I feel complete,
you are the one that makes me completely whole.

when my twins miraculously pulled through
and he, like them, is a gift from God
and you should know that we're all very proud of you.
As you know, it?s our one year anniversary,
and I?ve really enjoyed our first year together,
and I?ve been struggling to get you something affordable and memorable,
a type of gift that we?ll treasure and cherish forever.
Well, I think "you", are indeed, my real gift,
because I love you truly, with all my heart and soul,
for with you in my life, I feel complete,

Because you have persistently and consistently loved us,
and it seems like 'you' is always the last thing on your mind,
you have this wonderful gift of being able to inspire,
and we know that's a treasure and so very hard to find.
You gave me the courage to follow in your steps,
and at the end of day, that?s the greatest gift of all,
as Dad, because of you I walk taller,
in fact, I feel like I?m ten feel tall!
But we managed to get through that year,
and the next year you moved down the street from me,
you bought me a puppy, (NAME), for my birthday,
and truly, that was the best gift there ever will be.
