A Special Day for Everyone

Prone you set

upon a flat surface

garbed in an assorted

   array of coats.



I have chosen the one

with the white lacey collar

speckled with many pastels

    of confetti.



Your curls are strategically

     placed

Your crown of roses enhance

     your face.



The twinkle of lights

     reaching upward

Anticipating a wish to

      be made.



Music and song accompany

  the plans well laid.



Now's the time I

lower the flames

And, with a thin

  metal blade

I will divvy you.



This is my day...

All I have to say...

is:













   Where is my piece of cake?



    









     HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
