My Aunt's Birthday

I’m usually in Florida

To visit with my aunt

To celebrate her birthday

But this Covid year, I can’t.

Her sons (my cousins) will be there

To mix a toasting drink

And take her out to dinner

Where more glasses they will clink.

I’m sure there’ll be a candle

Stuck into some type of cake

So there will be a chance for her

A birthday wish to make.

We sent a gift, we called and sang

But it just can’t compare.

With fingers crossed, I’m hoping that

Next year we can be there.
