           Happy Birthday Sven

I always know, when I visit,
in his library of poetry and imagery,
I can be taken away...
...To the places I call home.

His words and emotions are a vehicle
that transport me deeper into my own dreams,
and keep me believing they're not so far away...

A friend and a Knight of literature beyond compare,
that is always there to lift my spirits,
and comfort me in my darkness.
A true gentleman,
gallant and romantic, akin to
the Princes of eras of yesteryear.....

A true and beautiful soul,
that can always make me smile
and let me see inside all my fantasies...

I wish for him all the beauty
that he has graced us all with.
And all the euphoria that he holds inside his heart.

I love you my friend..I wish for you all your dreams, to become your reality......
You have made our dreams more tangible, just knowing you......
       Happy Birthday John.....
We love you.........
