Kelly from Birthday Parade Answered:

Here's one I found in a book called "To a Very Special Friend on your Birthday". It is from a poet named Lindsay Newman. I adapted it slightly to fit your needs better:

There are so many things I'd like to say to you today... on your birthday

If you were here with me

Like how much your love means to me and that I hope,

even though I'm you're daughter and you're my mother,

that we would be friends above all

And to thank you

For all the wonderful memories I have of you

And for all the times you've been there when I really needed someone

And for the little things I remember

A kiss on a scraped knee

A word of encouragement when I needed one

Time may separate us on this special day, your birthday

But nothing separates the love I feel in my heart

Every time I think of you

From Kelly
