In July's embrace, on the eighth's gentle morn, James celebrates the day he was born. Two decades of life with friends by his side, In laughter and joy, their bonds are tied. Hockey's his passion, the ice calls his name, A symphony of skates in a spirited game. Yet dogs hold his heart, their loyalty true, In their playful eyes, love always anew. Family's warmth, a guiding light's glow, In their embrace, he continues to grow. A future awaits with a stethoscope's gleam, To heal and to help, a doctor's noble dream. So here's to young James, on this day of delight, May his journey be bright and his spirit take flight.
