Birthday Wishes (to me)

Happy Birthday to me....and it IS my birthday...The big ?

Happy Birthday to me!!

Can’t believe I’m sixty!!

neither can the bumblebee

or that nine foot oak tree.

Too bad if they can’t see

or wish that they could be,

able to escape and flee

from thyme inside the pantry.

Happy Birthday to me...

inside my soul is glee.

Figure out the fantasy

of you, and me as we...

May play nine with Marty,

kayak in the fake sea,

 have some cake and party

as long as it is free.

I prayed my sister Sandy

could be here and be happy..

and celebrate our history

of her, and me, and we.

Happy birthday to me.

I need a cup of coffee,

a little bit serenity

and lots of you and me.

In praise of Allen, I am not yella',
He's a most extraordinary fella--
The wisdom in his writin'
I find sublimely excitin',
To say naught of his his alter-ego, Nella!

Well, that was last year's birthday review, and there's actually very little else that I can add to it...other than to say, Happy Birthday, old Friend (mine was 8th Sept, so I'm catching up to ya!)

"Happy Happy Birthday Allen" May this day bring blessings beyond measure, Let the day guide you, celebrate you, and cherish your birth. Many Blessings of the day being sent to a wonderful person who deserves only the best that life can bestow.

Your poem is sweet and reflects the always present positive attitude that you carry with you daily. Eat cake, have a cup of joe, and play that nine. Again, wishing you a joyous day.

Happy Birthday Allen
I hope your day is fine
I can't believe you're sixty
Coz you look just fifty-nine!

And yet there is a special thing
That sets you well apart
Although you are three score years old
You're still a kid at heart!

Happy Birthday!

;-)
