Restrictions: None
Not My Birthday
Cupcakes and lemonade,
A marching band, a big parade,
A colorful banner that you made,
That is not my birthday.

Confetti and ribbons on the floor,
Gifts and gushes of love galore,
While I shout: “Give me more!”
That is not my birthday,

A quiet day, at home relaxing
No “To Do” list, nothing taxing
No one mentions the date that’s passing
This is a day like any other and definitely not my birthday so don’t mention it on Facebook. Please!
