How Do You Wish an Angel Happy Birthday?

In Memory of My Nanny

By Haley BoydPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

How do you tell an angel happy birthday? Do you send balloons and dream they'll reach heaven? Do you ask God to give them a party full of cake and presents?

How do you tell an angel happy birthday? Do you go to their resting place, talking of the ways you miss them? Do you visit the place you shared the most memories?

How do you tell an angel happy birthday? Do you yell up above, hoping you can scream loud enough they may hear you? Do you cry, but pretend like you aren't sad?

Do you admit your frustration, or the selfish part of your heart longing for their presence? Do you sit down, close your eyes, and picture the days you spent sharing laughs?

How do you wish an angel happy birthday? I would really like to know. Because being with you today, is the one place I'd like to go.

Happy Birthday in heaven Nanny. I love you more today, than yesterday and miss you always.
