Nineteen Candles

Celebrating WDC's 19th Year. A musical birthday card. 😁

Nineteen Candles

Happy Birthday. Happy Birthday… Oh, you’ve grown up so.

Nineteen candles. One for each great year.
You're always so near, You've grown so dear

Blow out the candles, the wish has come true
the dream of the storied mistress and master
didn't end in disaster

You're turning nineteen
and there's no end to be seen
Oh you're now a part of me each day, you see,
like my need for caffeine.

Nineteen candles but that's just a start
for Writing Dot Com.
You touch each writer's heart.

You're turning nineteen
and of the ten years I've seen
You've encouraged, mentored, all who've come on the scene.

Nineteen candles but that's just a start
for Writing Dot Com.
You touch each writer's heart.
