Birthdays

Chubby cheeks and cheerful birthdays, Were merry go lucky childhood days, Then realised we were getting older, Celebrations started turning colder ! Till taller than us our own kids grew, Our ageing humour did certainly brew, Today we celebrate our natal days, And now are as young in all ways ! Seriousness of life at once flew, Strong sense of wit was changing hue, Young friends could well change the outlook, Cherishing turning pages of a golden book ! Cutting of cake and chocolate smeared on face, A great laugh then adds to an ageful grace, Dancing to the tunes of a rocking music, Many left heartbroken, rather than getting sick ! Written on 22/5/14 By- Dr. Upma A. Sharma Sponsor- Carolyn Devonshire Contest- Birthday and ageing humour
