Premium Member Birthdays are forever

Every year
A new number emerges 
and my body feels 
the tightness 
or is it the tightness 
of my clothes 
as I enjoy 
too much birthday celebration?

       Another birthday comes around
          a reckoning of time

       What have I done with mine ~
          before too long I’ll be in the ground

so i named each of them daniels

cause on birthdays each sits

lighting and blowing out candles.

Premium Member Birthdays

A birthday is a celebration
a victory in life of God
putting us on earth
it's a day to look forward to
some people say they get old, 
but i celebrate being young

Premium Member I Never Bought Cufflinks For My Father

I never bought cuff links for my father
     never knew him really
I saw him at Christmas and birthdays
     for a few years early on
That ended
Father’s day, a strange, empty holiday

Another Birthday

Another Birthday

My age is something a-frightening; 
it came on me faster than lightning! 
	As birthdays come up; 
	they’ll continually sum up, 
but instead of so dark; it’s enlightening!

May Birthday

I think of childhood birthdays when
‘another year’ was always cool;
it meant a party, action men* -
and, best of all, a day off school.

February Funny Bone

I once met a guy by the name of Mort
By his record he must be very smart
At five, High School complete
College at six; a feat
A leaper; birthdays are four years apart

My How Time Flies

Seconds slide into minutes
minutes into years
Only pausing to rejoice
birthdays and graduations
weddings and deaths
Marks on the calendar
to celebrate another creaking joint
and fading memories

Birthday

My birthday is coming,
so should i say when?
should i be happy or sad
or be as chipper as ever?
Does birthdays matter,
when you are turning old?
I am sure my birthday is coming...
so is it when, again?

A Birthday Poem For Anyone

Another year has come to pass,
your birthdays here
its here at last.

The number changed,
advanced by one
Let's celebrate and have some fun.

For it is what we must do,
cause the gift this day
was the birth of you!

Birthday Wishes

Birthdays come, and birthdays go.
As you get older.

Falling quickly like white snow.

But it's always great to get a nice hello.

From those you remember, and who you gladly still know.

Premium Member Year of the Leaplings

If it's a year divisible by four, 

Then it's a year with one day more,

But the leaplings never can ignore

Far fewer are their true birthdays.

Pottery Jug

Pottery jugs big and small
Flowers in abundance one and all.

Sometimes roses, lillies too, 
Daisies white with a yellow hue

Birthdays weddings, anniversaries too
out comes the gug both bright and blue

To house the flowers sent by you.

Breakfast Menu

Broken arms hold a baby chewed in leprosy,
Black rain covers slit wrists,
Birthdays are rehearsals for Funerals.


The heart is a rapist

fate a faded color.

there just isn't enough candles
to go around
for the man
who stays
drunk
forever.

Premium Member August

A super month for celebrations! 
Unwrapping all those presents.
Great month for their birthdays.
Under the Virgo sign, naturally kind.
Sons to be so very proud of, always.
Twins were born this wonderful month.
