Today is your birthday my love
You are in the mood to celebrate
The moon shone brightly last night
Heralding beautiful sunshine this morning
In appreciation of a paragon of beauty
Born some years ago
Wonderfully and beautifully made
Enigmatic and tenacious
Determined and loving
Audacious and outspoken
Visionary and persistent
I wish you the best life can offer
You are one in a trillion!
Happy birthday my love

Falling leaves of bronze, orange and gold
Trees burst in amazing surprise
Audacious cobalt blue skies
Days flow to equinox
Fruit lusciously ripe
Fog creeps growling
Moon’s howling
Autumn’s

Ask for the best
Urge frames sure quest
Dream flavours fest
Aim for sweet smiles
Cakes baked with style
Ink tastes that pile
Opt for fond range
Use fashions change
Set sound sights strange
Charm spreads wide choice
Act with sure voice
Keep pulse and poise
Embrace fond treats
Reap joy you meet
Yes works the beat

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Allow fond times to spread fond fest,
Use joy to mint the witty pun;
Delight sure rhymes to dance with jest,
Attest bright hint in crazy run;
Caress the best in happy sums,
Indulge the flow of ever more;
Observe the zest that floods outcome,
Urge frees a glow of cheer that spores;
See in good times the puzzle prize.
Treat your sure gains with measured calm,
Impress deep chimes with fond surprise;
Make message plain in soothing balm,
Etch audacious the brave and true,
Set contagious your lovely cues.

an apology approaches awesome ambience
adverse advances amass at altars
academically aroused arcades are absolved
astonishingly abrupt adverbs articulate arduously
atlas awakens all around
arrggghhhhh audacious aardvarks attack aimlessly

adjourn the circus for you have a child,
who is confounded between antics and love.
her umbrella have been beaten by the cold,
she wants to be hold and touched, forever-fold.
adjourn the circus for you have a child,
your audacious face-paint won’t last another smile.
ludicrous like the monkey who belongs in the wild,
take you last applause to find; they all did it to unwind.
adjourn the circus for you have a child,
your heart seem to tick out of chance
as you glister the ludicrous dance,
she begs you, to alter your stance.
a drop of pearl escapes,
and travels over the ghoulish landscape
of fractured love and tainted frappe,
to find a telescope in search for hope.
but once again she is only to find;
your soul still colorblind.
audacious antic,
adjourn the circus for you have a child.
