228.From a Birthday Book.

These verses are based on an entry in a very old Birthday Book of mine. Presumably they apply to 1/365th of the human race, so I publish them for my daughter Rebecca and for all others born on her birthday.
This is a favourite photograph of mine.

FROM A BIRTHDAY BOOK!

'Moral courage is the hallmark of those born on this date.
Such people cope with steadfastness should setbacks be their fate.
They have tremendous patience in the face of adversity
They hang-on with determination saying 'What will be, will be'.'
Well, here's hoping not too many troubles ever come your way!
Here's wishing you the world on this your very special day.

Happy birthday Rebecca!

That is a very lovely photograph of her. She looks happy and pensive at the same time. Very enigmatic!
