A Parent's Advice To Stay Away From Hawks on 30th Birtday of His Daughter

If

All your days are exciting

And different

As you

And all that is yours,

If

A birthday is for remembrance

and an embrace

of love and life,

Thirty 

Is a figure of speech.

With

Much or little meaning

As a hawk

On a night-in-a-gale,

even to a  nightingale,

In an alley, 

Or by a window pane.
