First the idea comes: say oh Yay!
Secret missives stealthily beyond the waves
Were sent to all her friends in this digital age.
Now there's champagne and crepes,
pies and lemonade, cheeses in shapes.
Adriatic figs,bottles of pinot noir,
Fine meats grilled over fire
And the cake! What a confection!
Decorated with sweet perfection.
Pure ivory with blue icing waves
Just like the ocean she craves.
Each and every morsel to please
Like a just-for-her spring breeze.
Oh hurry everyone, don't you know it
She's almost here; we can't blow it.
Behind a chair, on the floor,
Other side of a swinging door,
Back of the couch,
Get in a crouch.
Everyone who's tall
Make yourself small.
Hey you, you're shadow is big,
Better make yourself a twig.
Any minute, any second,
Places, places don't you wreck it.
Here she comes, run and hide!
She hits the lights,
Now yell ...
S U R P R I S E!!!!
Happy Birthday SeasofMe!!!
I wanted to capture the growing chaos of party start time so I let the elegance degenerate a bit. Please forgive the indulgence! :)
