Wom has correctly guessed the puzzle! I thought it would take longer than that! Here it is:

"You have no birthday because you have always lived, you were never born, and never will you die.
You are not the child of the people you call mother and father, but their fellow adventurer on a bright journey to understand the things that are.
Every gift from a friend is a wish for your happiness, and so it is with this ring.
Fly free and happy beyond birthdays and across forever, and we'll meet now and then when we wish, in the midst of the one celebration that never can end."
Richard Bach
From "There's No Such Place As Far Away"

(A lovely little book, in my opinion!)

Awaiting word as to whether he'll accept the hosting of the next puzzle!

Wom had to decline hosting the next puzzle due to some time issues.

Karen, as the high scorer, has graciously accepting the hosting duties. Thanks, Karen!

See you all at the next puzzle!
