The Birthday Gift
Hanging in my wardrobe
Is a dress, dream come true
It’s just the thing I wanted
All these years through.
It’s dress bought
With tons of love
From many miles,
It’s not the money
Which went in it but
The joy, the pleasure
And the smiles
I wore it for a short while,
Touching it with love and care,
But soon hung it back in a cupboard
For I didn’t want to be tempted
To wear. “cause it’s my…
“Birthday Gift”, which is just a..
Few months away.
But I do often want to see it
And make sure it’s there.
For it’s not really just a dress
It’s a whole lot more. The love,
The care, the sentiments, and
The devotion all speak through it.
Just to say…
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU”.
