On Your 16th Birthday
- By Sandra Jeffers
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2011 with permission of the Author.
As my son reaches the milestone of 16 years I needed a way to tell him what he means to me. Sometimes the communication is hard in the teen years. I wanted to give him something from the heart.

Mother To Son Birthday Wishes

in Birthday Poems

Sixteen years ago today
They placed you in my arms
I became a mother
Bewitched by all your charms

Sixteen years ago today
They placed you in my arms
I became a mother
Bewitched by all your charms

You learned to walk, to read
Each day brought something new
No more my little boy
You hurt, I cried, you grew

Sometimes you didn't need me
Didn't want to hold my hand
Your independence made you proud
But me a little sad

I blinked my eyes, I turned around
You're almost grown, I see
Why did it go so fast?
A few more moments please

In your struggle to be free
Sometimes we don't get along
But I'm always on your side
I'll always be your mom

You can't stop time, can't hold it back
Can't stop the ocean's tide
The good person that you are
Fills my heart with pride

In my eyes there is no one like you
Can't wait to see what you'll become
My pride and joy, I love you
Happy birthday to my son

To be blessed with a child is a great event for any mother. We are all reminded of this blessed occasion every year with a birthday celebration.

Thanking The Lord For Son

in Birthday Poems

I'd like to thank the Lord above,
for this little life He's given to me.
Without His gift of love,
your birth would never be.

I'd like to thank the Lord above,
for this little life He's given to me.
Without His gift of love,
your birth would never be.

I'd like to thank the Lord above
for what His gift has meant.
Just watching you grow up
has made my heart content.

I'd like to thank the Lord above
for instilling in you a kind heart.
You have grown into a loving man.
You're witty, thoughtful, and smart.

And on your blessed birthday, son,
a prayer I send to you.
May the Lord instill in your heart
Charity, faith, and truth.

Birthday Wishes To A Friend's Son
- By Shishir
- Published by Family Friend Poems September 2015 with permission of the Author.
I wrote this poem to convey my birthday wishes to a friend's son. She was really touched by the feelings expressed in the poem, and it further strengthened mutual respect in our friendship.

in Birthday Poems

Looks from your son are full of grace
He will bring smiles on each face
Your love in the future he will repay
I wish him a very happy birthday

Looks from your son are full of grace
He will bring smiles on each face
Your love in the future he will repay
I wish him a very happy birthday

Your son will shine like the sun
Life challenges for him will be fun
Words of admiration people will say
I wish him a very happy birthday

Compassion will be his strength
He will travel the world at length
No one will he ever betray
I wish him a very happy birthday

He will make your family feel proud
His words will be heard by huge crowds
Noble examples he will lay
I wish him a very happy birthday

May God give him His blessings
To handle anything pressing
All difficulties will just keep away
I wish him a very happy birthday

Happy Birthday, Son

My son's dad died when my son was just 5 years old. Birthdays are just one of many occasions that he really misses having his dad around.

Birthday Poem Wishes From Deceased Dad To Young Boy

in Birthday Poems

Though you cannot see me,
Just know that I am near,
Singing happy birthday
Softly in your ear.

Though you cannot see me,
Just know that I am near,
Singing happy birthday
Softly in your ear.

I am always with you.
I'm never far away.
I would never miss the chance
To celebrate your 19th birthday.

Fourteen birthdays have passed
Since the day I died,
But for each one
I've been right by your side.

I've helped you blow out candles
And heard the wishes that you make.
I've seen you open up each gift
And watched you eat your birthday cake.

I've watched you grow into a man
As the years have passed by, son.
And I am so proud of you
For all that you have done.

You deserve the very best.
May all your dreams come true.
I'm leaving my eternal love
As my birthday gift to you.

Happy birthday, Son
Love, Dad

Happy Birthday, Son
- By Anitha Devi Pillai
- Published by Family Friend Poems January 2019 with permission of the Author.
I wrote this for my son on his birthday. He was only eight then, and I don't know if he understood the depth of my poem. But he reached out to hug me and said, "Nice." I forgot about the poem after that. He turned 15 last year, and when we were talking about birthday gifts one day, he shared that his most memorable birthday gift was the poem I had written for him when he was little. Thankfully I was able to find the card that I had given him. I hope the soul of my poem resonates with you.

I've Always Loved You, Son

in Birthday Poems

From the moment I looked into your eyes,
I knew that I was never going to be the same again.
You held my gaze, not once looking away
as you reached out to grip my finger.

From the moment I looked into your eyes,
I knew that I was never going to be the same again.
You held my gaze, not once looking away
as you reached out to grip my finger.

I knew then that I would never let you go.
I have fallen in and out of love many times,
but I could never fall out of love with you.

You, my dear, were part of me before
I knew you by your name.
