Birthdays Come but Once a Year
Aging Outside
Bodies Showing Our Wear

Time Goes on
Matter to Dust
Some Things Stay True
Some Things Never Rust

The Love of a Parent
Something Always There
The Love of a Child
Not Always Seen..
But Is Everywhere

When I Was Born
A Part of You Was Too
The Mother Inside
Finally Came True

I Love You, Mom
Despite Distancing Myself
I Love Your Care
Always Keeping Me in Health

One Day to Come
A Parent I Will Become
Child of My Own
One Day I Will Behold
To You I Will Look
Remembering the past
Never Forgetting the Love That
Will Always Last.

Happy Birthday
This Day Is Yours
Enjoy Your Family
And All That it Stores

-Jason Wonsang
