Red Headed Freckled One

Happy Birthday Mandy


Come friends and gather round me, and listen to my tale
About a merry gentle soul, that I love so well;
A little sister to me that I found along the way.
I know what I am speaking of, when you hear me say,

To tell you all about her, I don’t know where to start.
She may be small in stature, but she has a giant’s heart.
She has the merriest brown eyes that you have ever seen.
She’s the red headed freckled one, Rowena Bricin.

When first I met this merry lass, I saw what she could be;
A source of fine amusement, and pleasant company.
And so I invited her to join our happy band.
She fitted in quite handily, e’en better than I’d planned.

She took to our adventures with squeals of happy glee.
It seems her heart had always longed for tales of chivalry,’
And now she got to live out her own medieval dream.
Welcome to our fantasy, Rowena Bricin.

And who knows just how far this lass will go, now that she’s here.
She’s become a ready fount of merriment and cheer.
Who could e’er imagine how paler life would be
If the red headed freckled one had never come with me?

Little sister and companion, where ever we may go.
I’ll always have a hug for her because she cheers me so.
May all the skies be blue, and the meadows ever green
For our red headed freckled one, Rowena Bricin.
