Birthday

Its my birthday...

Birthday

I swam in the seas,

A milestone I reached,

Saw a island,

So I decided to reach the sand.

I arrived after a year,

The island was clear,

I walked into a forest,

I saw a sign, it said in a chorus:

"Congrats reaching 10 years old,

Now you have to be bold,

Show us you can fly,

You will if you try."

I finally am in the island 10,

I wasn't wingless but nostalgia was shed.

But I remembered:

"Don't cry because it's over, smile cause it happened."

Such a cleverly written post, full of meaning, fine meter and what's more, a story within a poem that reads smoothly and true. Kudos, Martiya

Belated birthday greetings!

I hope that I'm not too late but... i wish you've had a really nice and warm birthday. I've read many of your poems and given your age, I'd truly say that you have what it takes to become a writer. You've already accomplished so much in such a young age so I think you should give it a shot as well. I quite enjoy reading your poems. It always has a deep meaning and a good rhyming scheme. Keep up the good work Martiya!
Once again, A Very Happy Birthday 🎂!

I wish you to write more stories and poems that make you happy in your new age and to get closer to your dreams step by step. You are very lucky and I am sure that you will have the best 10th birthday possible with your intelligence and awareness. I am always here for you and keep dreaming and wishing the best every day! I swear to you, whatever you wish, everything you wish for comes true. Be careful what you wish for.
This poem inspired me. I'm about to turn 20 and I have to do something before I see that sign. Thank you! HAPPY BIRTHDAY AGAIN! btw 8th april is also my idol's bday too.

Happy Birthday Martiya. You are great young poet. I loved how you compared a year to an adventure and each year to an island. Nice job there.
