The Bigger, the Better??{/b}

I picked you out a birthday cake; I picked it out with love
and kisses—all that goo! I even brought a cooing dove

to show you just how much I cared, but then it would not go
through the skinny door of your flat, so your heart didn’t know

how very much I care for you—your huge cake said it all!
But then, I had to pick another yummy that was small.

I thought “the bigger the better” would send my message loud!
But now your cake is just a solo treat; not for a crowd!
