The Curse of the Face-Book

The course of Face-book 

On her birthday she received 
Flowers, 
Cards,  
Gifts,  
Cakes, with candles on and
Readymade Phrases 
Her room was empty and 
No friends rang, they had
Like: 
Flowers,
Cards,
Gifts, 
And cakes with candles on 
Gone virtual.

don't feel anything - forgot to type my all important name. Guess the card could have been from anyone, or maybe a slip of the finger. Some times the computer will give you a reminder and an automatic happy birithday with feeling will be sent.
