MARY LOVE AT 18
As you reach the legal age today
May you continue to grow as you obey
Your parents' wishes and elders' requests
So, your life will be filled with joys and many conquests
You are a lovely rose in full-blown
Who will be reaping what you have sown
So, keep planting love as you exist
Keep sharing kindness no one can resist
You are now in smiles and gaiety
Keep that and be blessed with more beauty
May you reach your life's full potential
The zenith of success and the essential
Remember that we love you just as you are
Keep shining bright like a North Star
Inspire more people in this life's dreary way
In all that you do, think and say
