First Birthday

They peer at me through colorful rectangles. 
And I'm trying to figure it out.
A tiny cake for me to wrangle?
What could this be about?

You want me to smash it?
Are you sure that's allowed?
Can you get why I'm hesitant --
With this cake, event and large crowd?

This seems kind of strange, 
Though it is very appealing. 
It's right in my range.
Tell me, with what are we dealing?

Wait. Are you serious?
I really can dig in this?

Hold my milk.
