I bless the day your dad met your mom, for a fruit was destined to be their first born.

I bless the day they both made love, for it led to the birth of a baby so beautiful and tender like a dove.

I bless the day you started to walk, for it began the journey to the place we would meet and talk.

I bless the day you started school, for it was a decision in the direction of me meeting you.

I bless the day you first paid my fare, for me it meant love and care although you were not aware.

I bless the day I discovered you are a sister to my friend, for till this day, this I still can not comprehend.

I bless the decency and morally sound nature of your heart, for it is a true reflection of who and what you are and not just an act.

I bless the beautiful sound of your voice, for it is sweet, cool and soothing, leaving me with just one choice.

I bless the day I didn’t get the letter you sent, for I guess I was only to know a note was sent but not the content.

I bless the day you were ill and in the hospital, for then I knew how far I could go for you in full throttle.

I bless the day I got your message on my phone, for I could only but be grateful for having in you a friend I could call my own.

I bless the day you moved out of the neighborhood, for it was prophetic you will soon leave singlehood.

I bless the way you celebrate the success of others, for your day of celebration will be known beyond your borders.

I bless the month that you were born, for it being the same as mine explains why we bond as one.

Finally..........

I bless the day you got married, for it was a day to make merry and this brings me to the end of my story.
