Here is a very special present
Yet, so precious, you can never see,
It is yours alone to treasure
A birthday gift for you from me.

All year long I have pondered so
Where I could find the perfect jewel,
To place inside a birthday greeting
With some tiny kisses too.

Then I found one that will keep forever
So receive now of the true,
Just reach out your gentle touch
And know I think of you.

You never need unwrap it
Just tuck it in your heart, to be
A token of God's love across the miles
Unfolded from the heart of me.
