you likened me to Socrates
just at the time
when I needed to find
my self confidence
a newey at this game
of forum sharing
and so I write to you
Dear Jim
to wish you
joy and leisure
on this day of pleasure
your birth day
to wish you
all the good things
that life can bring you
to wish you
happiness
and to wish you
a star
to light your way
Happy Birthday Jim
thank you for being there
for those of us who need direction
you are that star!
