This kind of reads to me like a newspaper report of the party, although, if so I would have anticipated more name dropping. I don't know much about Tesla, but I imagine that he treated a lot of his birthdays with a combination of press release and progress report. A clever way to handle a very difficult prompt.
Yes indeedy. The cake is for the celebrant, not just because you want to mimic something you saw on T.V. to please others. Also enjoyed an insight into your children's cake decisions and how you did your best to meet their demands. Fun read! Thanks for your entry!
This is so sweet. I mean the interactions between mother and daughters as well as the cake. Every family is different, but I do know that we always tried to make sure that the person whose birthday it was chose the cake and the meal. It is their day, after all.
Wow. So glad your friend had the support she needed at the time.
I can't even begin to imagine how devastated she must have felt.
Thanks for sharing this with us.
This poem is for my best friend, who actually found out on her birthday that her husband wanted a divorce. All events in this poem are true as told to me by her.
She thought they'd be together
until their dying days.
It never crossed her mind
they could, at some point, part ways.
Head-over-heels in love she was
and thought the sentiment returned
blind to the possibility
that one day she might get burned.
He left one day on business
and for weeks did not respond
to any call or message;
with her heart he did abscond.
Then, on the morning of her birthday
there came a knock at her door
she was handed divorce summons
for he felt their love no more.
Such a horrible birthday present
to leave one in lonesome tears.
A tragedy for a heart open to love
to realize all she feared.
Thank goodness she has friends
on which she can rely.
They'll see her through the heartache
'till her heart again can fly.
