Happy 13th ~ Saffra
Are you the Girl upon this Card,
Having lots of fun,
Celebrating your Birthday today,
With Family, Friends, and Everyone?
Saffra today you are Thirteen,
The Beginning of your Teenage Years,
Seven more years of Growing Up,
Full of Laughter and not Tears.
I send my Love, Best Wishes too,
Dear Granddaughter, Saffra Dear,
On this your Memorable Birthday,
But I am sorry, ~ I will not be near ~
To raise my Glass, to Wish you Well,
Good Luck, Good Health and more,
For your Future and your Life ahead,
To Saffra whom I adore.
