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…

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
