Birthday Presents

Birthday presents for the grands Are challenging to find, Unless you locate something After which they’ve always pined. If not, you search online until Your eye is caught by what Might be, if you are lucky, Just the thing that hits the spot. For my grandchild’s seventh birthday, What I found for her, in pink, Was a set of walkie-talkies; They were ordered in a blink. Her birthday is tomorrow But we tried them out today. They checked off all the boxes As we put them into play. Check! For something new and fun. Check! A breeze to use. Check! They’re pink and have a light So they’ll be hard to lose. It’s very gratifying When excitement you have earned, Unlike my husband’s birthday gift, Which has to be returned.

When it comes to gifting, I find writing a cheque to be the best solution! But enjoyed your clever poem! Aloha!
