A Birthday
Got lots of cards and lots of texts
And phone calls, some with singing,
All filled with happy birthday wishes
Kith and kin were bringing.
A vase of purple tulips
Made this rainy day delightful.
(My husband knows I love them
So his choice was quite insightful.)
A visit to a pretty town
With shops just right for browsing
Will segue to a hotel room
With views too nice for drowsing.
Tonight a dinner with some friends
Will cap the celebration,
For getting older's so much better
With collaboration.
