Jay Narain Poet Carpe Diem

Notes About The Poem

Birthday

Quote:"Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin". Mother Teresa

Long awaited birtday arrives,
Best wishes, cakes and flowers from social media thrives,
I feel haapy, did not know I had so many friends,
Wish I could smell the flowers and taste a piece from the cakes.

The joy of real birtday touches my heart,
When someone sings a birtrhday wish from heart,
When I try to blow a single candle whole heartedly,
Wish I had some real people nearby for the party.

Then I think, why bother, this is your birthday,
Pick up some roses, eat some cake, enjoy your day,
Play some joyous romantic music whole day.
Carpe Diem, it is your day.
