Birthdays
It’s funny how a
birthday can be different at each age
They hit you in
the worst way or bring joy – it’s hard to gauge.
Up until about age ten,
you get no satisfaction.
You always look around
the bend and and state your age in fractions.
The teenage years
bring privileges and freedom from your parents.
You count the days
with images of no more overbearance.
Your birthdays in
your 20’s seem to all involve a party -
with food and drinks
aplenty – in your 20’s you’re still hardy!
Your 30’s through
your 50’s you just celebrate the tens.
Another decade’s
nifty and you hang out with your friends.
In your 60’s and your
70’s your life starts changing gears
Your birthdays are
redundancies – it’s just another year.
Then, after that,
when birthdays near, they give you more elation.
You’ve made it
through another year – it’s cause for celebration!
No matter what
your age is, there is one thing that is true.
When you turn another
page, you like a day that’s just for you!
