Margaret, dear, at sixty-one,
Your journey's far from over, just begun!
With wisdom earned and memories made,
A life of vibrant colors, not one shade.

From garden blooms to books you've read,
Adventures had and tears you've shed,
Each year a chapter, rich and true,
A story that belongs to you.

Your laughter echoes through the years,
Dispelling doubts and calming fears.
Friends gather 'round to celebrate,
The woman they appreciate.

So raise a glass to sixty-one,
To Margaret's spirit, bright as sun.
May this year bring you joy anew,
And all your fondest dreams come true!
