Today’s your day, so let it shine,
May every hour feel just fine,
May friends be near and spirits high
And happy moments never die!

I wish you warmth and joy and cheer,
A lucky and a gentle year,
May all your dreams come true for you
And every sky be bright and blue!

May your smile be warm and true,
May peace and comfort follow you,
May health be strong and worries few
And luck be always there for you!

Which flowers to give

For an acquaintance, a small but pretty bouquet is ideal: tender roses, hydrangeas or seasonal flowers. Avoid very lush or romantic red-rose arrangements, which suit a partner better. Add a card with a short wish.
