Chandelier Earrings

Today is her birthday ring all the bells Today is her birthday for one who excels Today be prepared ~ be warned ~ be aware The grooviest grandma With flowing red hair Will be hitting the town In her gold lamé gown On the tiniest of feet Oh so comfy ~ so sweet Shimmering ~ Silver ‘Birks’ ‘Cos to wear any others Quite frankly really hurts… A scarlet feather boa Think you already know her? Chandelier earrings almost touching the floor She is Sassy ~ Saucy ~ Sexy too Hey ~ have you almost guessed who? With her beloved pussy Irene ^~^ Who really thinks she is the Queen Robed head to tail in emerald green A classier pair you've never seen As a friend she makes me smile for this I love her all the while I love her total eccentricity her passion and her honesty Happy Birthday salutations on this day of celebrations Sending love and hugs across the world from Ann your biggest fan To my dearest Panagiota my poem is my gift to you Enjoy your day ~ in your unique way ~ as only you can do… Written 13th March 2020

Dear Ann~ What a great way to begin my birthday. I love Poems that are created in lieu of pre made cards...we all know English, why not use it? And a self created poem is indeed a gift. Thank you, Ann...for your time and love, Panagiota Romios and her cat, Irene. Xxxx^~^xxx

Thank you Tom, as I said to Arturo, our soupmails are such fun as we love the same things and then we become young girls as our inner child takes over, haha... I hope you and your loved ones are keeping safe. With kindest thoughts Ann xx
