On the night you were born, the stars aligned,
A world of wonder, for you to find.
With moonlit skies and whispers of cheer,
A celebration of you, so dear.Polar bears danced, and geese flew high,
The whole world rejoiced, beneath the sky.
In this tale, love’s light is shown,
A reminder that you’re never alone.#MelAndNikkiReview
