Memorize Your Birthday

M-emorize your birthday
I-t's time to celebrate; 
L-earn so well to remember
A-nd let it not evaporate.

B-irthday you must memorize, 
R-ecording it in your mind; 
A-llow it not to be forgotten, 
C-heck the calendar and find.
E-xcitement your heart feels, 
R-apture remains all the way; 
O-n September fifth fine morn, memorize your birthday.
