Night Party

Light up the sky with fireworks,
and make it look like day.

Fill the glasses with champagne,
letting it flow out of the glasses
like water in a marble fountain.

Prepare a barbecue,
and invite friends - even those
who don't like karaoke.

Play music, and let yourselves
free, like a rose flower not ashamed
to reveal its bloom.

Celebrate with life and color,
as though happiness is mortal - YOLO
(You Only Live Once).

Today is my birthday!
Celebrate!
