Best Fifteenth Poems

It's my fifteenth birthday
and I don't really care
because I have everything I need 
my family, food, and air.

No more birthdays
will ever be the same
as the first through the thirteenth
when my dad said my name.

I know I have to move on
but it's harder than you think

in 4 1/2 medium roasted broiled
or baked chicken wings

In an all-you-can-eat competition
the winning contestant
scoffed 441 wings
in half an hour 

Congrats?
Absolutely sickening!

Little known holidays occurring on February fifteenth...,
awaiting commercial sponsors to become...
what else...,but hand over fist money makers?
(http://www.holidays-and-
observances.com/february-15.html)

Excess Valentine's surplus sweet treats
and assorted paraphernalia
need not go to waste
said sappy accouterments
can be repurposed

quickly without haste
less pronounced celebrated fetes faced
overwhelming stiff as an arrow baste
in love potion, understandable
no...

The Fifteenth of April
By Franklin Price
4/16/2016

The fifteenth of April
Has been here come and gone
Every year at this time
I feel much as a pawn

Yesterday the game was over
Moved too slowly to the ax
For it was the last day
That I could file my tax

Hold on just a...

I hate it when this deadline comes around,
and not all of my information can be found.
It is necessary to wait until the last day
whenever there is a time I have to pay.
Having more than one job is usually nice.
When tax time comes, I have to...

Unsung heroes paved the way.
No cross, no crown, cries sing from the ground,
We can still hear them singing now today.

Every trail of blood that made our history,
Today bookmarks the end of their misery, 
No pain, no pride, our scars...
