Haiku Happy Birthday
Born on the sixteenth
Hot June is my birthday month
Mama rent the pool
It’s my birthday splash
Coconut tanning lotions
Fragrance fills the air
Candles on my cake
I blow, but they all stay lit
Little brother laughs
Yes, he made the switch
Trick candles just won’t blow out
My cheeks turn bright red
Gifts glued together
Oh what a birthday crisis
Brother laughs again
I’ll see he gets his
July is his birthday month
I’ve two weeks to plan
Unwrap all his gifts
Switch boy stuff with Barbie dolls
Panty hose and bras
Put glue in the rose
He will insist on that piece
He’s not laughing now
Aren’t birthdays such fun
I am older and wiser
Taught him a lesson
