blow out your candles

On this day
your feeling great
finally
your turning eight!
presents, cake
but you must wait..

a cheerful letter or message
is on its way to you
so don't attack your presents yet
i know thats hard to do
the card was put in with a little shove
if you rip it open gently
you'll unleash the love

on this special day
don't throw out the cards
because words will last forever
as the physical will tare to shards

  1. wow how amazing! the rhyming really enhances the poem and does not get in the way over the great image you gave us. The rhyming also gives it that "eight year old" feel. Lovely!
