Birthday Poems For Family
Published: May 2019
A Birthday Celebration is a life affirming event. Celebrating a birthday is making a statement that your life is significant and meaningful. You are saying, my life is worth living and therefore I am celebrating that I am alive for another year. It is a time to get together with friends and family and celebrate the life that you are living.
Birthdays may also be a time of melancholy reflection if we are not happy with our current station in life. For this reason it is good to have family and friends close to you to let you know how special you are.

1. Happy Birthday, Daughter
Many are the joys in life.
I'm blessed with quite a few.
Still, most of all I'm grateful
To have a daughter just like you.
I remember well when you were born,
The joy that filled my heart.
When I first held you in my arms,
I loved you from the start.

Learning new things every day
Brought happiness untold.
The child in you, I still can see.
A glimmer here and there.

A tugging at your hair.

2. My Dearest Sister
Sister, you are a guardian angel in disguise.
You are perceptive, intelligent, and wise,
Always helping me through good and bad.
You are also the greatest friend I've ever had.
If I could have one wish, it would be
To give you all that you have given to me.
Though I've put our relationship through some hazy days,
You've been the sunlight that has shone in so many ways.
Through my ups and downs, right by me you stood,
And you gave me your hand whenever you could.
Though I am sure my mistakes will not end here,
You're always there to keep me away from my fears.
I don't doubt some of your headaches are from me.
With all the times you lecture and tease,
I stand there upset and displeased.
Though I tell you I can't stand you,
You come back with, "That's not true."
We've had our fights,
Which lead to sleepless nights,
But in the end, I thank you so much.
My appreciation for you has no end.
You will always be my sister and my friend.

Your birthday is the day I remember
all the wonderful things you do.

6. Today Our Twins Turn One!
in Twin Poems
"It's twins!" the tech told me, giving me quite a fright.
"Are you sure?!?" I had asked, wondering if I'd heard right.
But sure enough, there you were, up there on the screen
And I tried to make sense of what it all would mean.
Double the feedings, double the tears,
Double the changings and double the fears.
Just how would I nurse you both at the same time?
And how would I choose who to hold if you're both crying?
How much would you cost this already strapped family?
Diapers, food, college... just the idea was overwhelming.
And how would I care for my other dear son,
When I've only two arms with which to hold everyone?
The future seemed scary or daunting at least.
My mind raced with questions, my heart skipped some beats.
But then I remembered that you were both formed in love
That you were two miracles, gifts sent from above.
How could I be worried, what gave me the right?
We would figure it out, what seemed dark would become light.
And soon enough the time came, after nine very long months
Two bundles of joy were delivered to us at once.
We counted your fingers, we counted your toes,
They totaled twenty on top and twenty below.
You were both the most perfect little angels we'd seen.
And we couldn't believe just how lucky we'd been.
Now a year has flown by, where does the time go?
It seems like just yesterday we were bringing you home!
You couldn't be more different even though you are twins.
Though you both love to laugh and discover new things.
You're both funny and sweet, you are happy and smiley.
And we all feel so lucky that you're part of our family.
Some might say "double trouble" but we say "double fun!"
As we celebrate today, our two babies turn ONE!
Happy Birthday to my sweetest little angels.Featured Shared StoryI'm 28 years old and I had my first child when I was just 20 and now I'm having Twins that were unexpected news when the tech told me I ask her three times and she says yes I couldn't believe...

God gave me a beautiful gift when he gave me you
Not only a big sister but a best friend too

What a blessing to have you in my life
Always compassionate in times of hardships and strife

With friends, family, and everything to please!Featured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!

8. Birthday Anniversary
Each year our birthday forces us to grow
Into the person whom we have yet to know
With circumstances that hopefully have made us wise
When we learn from our multitude of mistakes and tries.
To take a long look at these years gone past
To really reflect on how time travels fast
To know that every day that each of us lives
Is a great gift from God that He lovingly gives.
So as you celebrate another passing year again
On this day that marks the beginning of the moment when
You entered this world for a purposeful plan
Just remember your worth doesn't come from man.
Your worth comes from our Creator who made you unique
Who gave you knowledge and words to speak
Who doesn't care about a past success or failure
But only cares about your heart that His presence makes pure.
False paths, lost dreams, wrong choices, it's true
Fills your past as well as everyone else's, too.
There may be those lost memories that hinder your day,
But with God in your mind the regrets soon melt away.
Cherish this day and who you're growing to be,
This special person that all of us already see.
Embrace this coming year and live each day anew
By becoming the excellent one God created in you.Featured Shared StoryThis poem is what I sent to my daughter who is in prison. To wish her a Happy 31st Birthday and to know with God everything is possible. Even when you have regrets in your life. God takes...

9. Happy Birthday, Sweetheart
It's that one special day created with you,
When wishes rain in for the year coming new.
You'll gather this year which travelled too fast,
Weed out the regrets of time reaped by the past.
Harvest the days God planted with blessings,
Your health, your family, and valuable life-lessons.
Although we're apart on your day of the year,
With faith and God's love our hearts bloom without fear.
This wish I have picked for my heart's only love;
A garden of happiness and tending from above.

10. Happy Birthday, Super Star Sister
From the day you were born I've watched you grow
Into the nicest person one could know.
Love changes everything, words oh so true.
My world changed the moment I first held you.
A baby sister who captured my heart,
Nothing and no one could tear us apart.
That goes for all those who love you to bits,
Especially your children and grandkids.
So bouncy and lively, zesty and bright,
That's the way you go on sailing through life.
You light up a room, soon as you appear.
A gift to the world, so precious and dear.
May this special day and all days after
Be filled with abundant love and laughter.
Every moment a moment to treasure
For a sister who brings so much pleasure.
Never change from the woman that you are.
To us sisters, you are a "Super Star."Featured Shared StoryLove your poem, Sister Beryl. You're a superstar.

11. Happy Birthday, Dad
When I was born
I didn't know much
I was introduced to this world
By your kind words and soft touch
Years passed so quickly
And we were already alike
You were my guide and instructor
When learning to ride a bike
Off to kindergarten
And a tear in your eye
You've always been sensitive
When it comes to goodbyes
It's because of the love
That you hold in your heart
You want me to experience life
But don't like to be apart
So off I went
Adventuring alone
Learning new things
Experiencing life on my own
Hasn't always been easy
That I am aware
But one thing's for sure
You are always there
You've helped me see
The woman I can become
You've always had faith in me
Even when I had none
It's that unconditional love
That helped me get through
I wish all little girls' daddies
Could be as great as you
If all girls had guidance
And a dad's shoulder to cry
They'd grow up with confidence
And a willingness to try
So I guess what I'm saying
Is thank you, Dad
I'm not sure words can express
The impact you've had
You are my hero
And an inspiration to all
Happy Birthday, Dad
Or Papa Dukes as I call

12. Birthday Wish
A cake with a lit candle,
Presents with ribbons and bows,
A bike with pink, glittery handles,
A little girl who grows and grows.
What will you wish for, my love,
On this, your very special day?
Send your wish to God above.
It will come true if you pray.
As you blow out the candle, my dear,
I'll make a wish for you too.
I'll whisper it so you won't hear,
That way I know it will come true.
My wish for you is like sunshine,
Warm, cheery, and full of delight,
My wish is the starlight, soothing and fine,
Which lights up the dark, dreary night.
May God follow you always,
May the path always be clear,
And may you have a happy birthday
This day and all through the years.Featured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!

13. On Your 16th Birthday
Sixteen years ago today
They placed you in my arms
I became a mother
Bewitched by all your charms
You learned to walk, to read
Each day brought something new
No more my little boy
You hurt, I cried, you grew
Sometimes you didn't need me
Didn't want to hold my hand
Your independence made you proud
But me a little sad
I blinked my eyes, I turned around
You're almost grown, I see
Why did it go so fast?
A few more moments please
In your struggle to be free
Sometimes we don't get along
But I'm always on your side
I'll always be your mom
You can't stop time, can't hold it back
Can't stop the ocean's tide
The good person that you are
Fills my heart with pride
In my eyes there is no one like you
Can't wait to see what you'll become
My pride and joy, I love you

19. Happy Birthday To The Queen Of Our Hearts
Poems are written every day for moms across the earth.
Stories, songs, and ballads, all trying to tell her worth,
How every day she battled, the odds against her stacked,
Never giving up on us and never looking back.
There was no time for wishing or waiting for a dream.
Faces to wash, meals to cook, clothes that needed cleaned.
She never feels that she's been cheated of a life to call her own.
Smiles that come from beneath her feet is where her heart is drawn.
Sometimes we saw a worried look or heard a desperate prayer,
But she never burdened her little ones with even a hint of care.
Our table was full, our beds were warm, clothes upon our back.
We always had just what we needed; we never knew a lack.
The outside world might raise a brow and doubt that we'd survive,
But mom was sure of her love for us, and that love kept us alive.
She could've chosen a different path, the road to please herself.
Instead she took the high road, and her kids became her wealth.
Investing in us every day, she seemed so brave and strong,
But only God knew the tears she cried when she was all alone.
He heard her every prayer and watched as time went by.
He traded her ashes for beauty and lifted her head up high.
It's no wonder that we love her so unlike any other.
Happy Birthday to the queen of our hearts, our dear, precious Mother.Featured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!

My daughter is a dream come true.

The time may be changing, but she is the same,

and may God keep her always blessed.
I love you, my angel, you are the best.
My wish is to have you as my daughter again and again
as you filled my life with happiness and removed all the pain,
so I wish you good luck and happiness throughout.
