Amidst the glow of golden sunlit rays, Helen turns fifty, fifty wondrous days. A procession of moments, both bright and gray, Now celebrated in a grand getaway. With laughter as footprints on sandy shores, Her friends gather 'round, each heart adored. Beneath the constellations, stories unfold, Tales of a lifetime, wisdom untold. With every toast, a testament to years, Of joy and triumph, of love and tears. Together they weave, in time’s gentle sway, A tapestry of memory, as night turns to day. Their spirits dance like fireflies in flight, In friendship's glow, all burdens light. Here’s to Helen, in the twilight’s tender song— A journey well-lived, where hearts belong.
