Rose bud yet to blossom

You are a rose bud yet to blossom
Radiating fragrance and happiness
Achieving your first milestone along the path of life
Blessed by the loved ones near and far
Precious treasure of your dear parents
A long way to go for your lofty goals
May the path be smooth and peaceful
Sans impediments to deter your courage
Wondering why the gleeful celebrations
Welcoming everyone with your enchanting smile
Being the cynosure of all eyes
Fountain of delight blissful scenes at home
Amidst the cheerful laughter and blessings
Time to share your birthday cake
Let’s all sing happy birthday to you
Wishing you full of promises and honours to gain..
